           Summary: wrong desktop is displayed when switching between
                    dual-head and single head
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: plasma-bugs@xxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: jan.hnatek@xxxxxxx


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.98)
Compiler:          Sun Studio 12 
OS:                Solaris
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

While using laptop, I'm often switching between single head and dual deal with
KDE4 on OpenSolaris. This brought up an annoying problem, which may be a little
complicated to explain.

With first invocation of KDE4 on single-head, I setup my /primary/ desktop,
making changes to the panel and adding some desktop widgets.

When later connecting the laptop to docking station with external monitor, the
configuration I have set up for the primary monitor now shows up on the
external monitor. This is not the way I prefer it, since I use the internal
display as primary even in dual-head, so I moved the panel and created an
additional panel on the external display.

Using the single display, I now don't see the "primary" panel (with tray!) and
I don't see a way to switch to it. This is mostly annoying, because creating
additional instances of tray widget doesn't help (tray icons only appear in the
first tray instance).

The "desktop activity" switcher widget used to help, but in latest versions
this only switches desktop widgets, not panels, and even then the layout gets
broken.
