Bug#647251: plasma-desktop: Problem in switching between multiple monitors to a single monitor

[Konstantinos Aravanis <kos.arav@gmail.com>]

Package: plasma-desktop
Version: 4:4.6.5-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have this problem for some months now.

In my office I use an external monitor that I plug in my laptop, but at house I
just use my laptop's screen.

After configuring my laptop to work with the external monitor as the primary
output, everything runs well.
If I 'll try to reconfigure the "display and monitor settings" in order to use
only my laptop's screen, again everything is ok.
But now if I restart my laptop without the external monitor plugged in and I
start opening some applications, I can't see their windows on the screen. Even
though they are running and I can see them in the task manager of the panel.
If I kill the plasma-desktop then the windows will be appeared.

The only way to "fix" this problem is to delete the ~/.kde folder with all my
kde configurations and restart my laptop.

Thanks in advance,
Aravanis Konstantinos
