Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: x11-xserver-utils

I'm using my notebook docked (in the office) and alone at the home. I have connected 2 external monitors if is docked and I use two attached short scripts to switch output between both (dual-head) external and internal LCDs. There is really strange interaction between xrandr and window manager (?) - look attached pictures:
1) xrandrDocked.png: There is only one little problem - the panel doesn't maximize his width. It happens when notebooks wakes up from RAM. If is docked during boot that is all right. I run script dualHeadOn manually after loggin to KDE session
2) xrandrSwitchToInternal.png: I ran dualHeadOff script. Pictures shows how windows was transformed to new resolution. Sometimes it is done correctly (maximized windows remain maximized), but usually not. (Small rectangle in the upper left corner is FireFox ;?))
3) xrandrSwitchToExternal.png: This is the opposite direction - I ran dualHeadOn. That the problem occurs every time, I'm afraid
- I have enabled Auto-hide properties of the panel. This behaviour is on/off randomly
- some icons disappear from the System Tray (like nm-applet, Skype). Non-KDE - maybe?
