[Solved] KDE: disable external monitor auto-detection?
So after my saga with my external monitor, I managed to solve it (kind of) with some scripts... But now the fact that when you plug in an external monitor, KDE automagically pops up a dialog box asking the user what it should do about it is an annoyance... anyone know any way to get rid of it?

In the System Settings, search for the Service Manager, under Startup and Shutdown.
I unticked Display Management change monitor, this stops it from starting automatically. To stop it for the current session, select its row and click Stop.
