Hello Everyone!
I have two identical monitors (same brand and model). One is connected to HDMI (no rotation) and the other to DVI-I (rotation 2, or 90 CW). This configuration is saved as long as I don't reboot/logout, but once I do, both monitors are rotated 90º CW.
The problem, I'm assuming, is that kscreen identifier is the same for both, hence it fails to store the configuration and applies the last one on reboot. So, I suppose it could be fixed if I could, somehow, change the hash/identifier, but I don't know how or if it is possible at all.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Thanks for reading !

I'd say in cases like these it helps to experiment a bit, what does happen if you change the hash?
In any case you probably have a good case for a bug report

Thanks for the reply!

I just tested it, and it just resets .
I'll check the bug list and/or file one .
