Comment 109 for bug 278471

Could we please try to find a fix for this problem before 4.3?

Who is responsible for KDE's randr implementation?

Does anyone know where the corresponding code is located in KDE 4.2? Couldn't we (the very least) simply make the randr service user-controllable again.

Aike and others: Would you please stop pretending there wasn't a problem until you've confirmed that the previous problems are really fixed? From 4.1 to 4.2 the situation actually got worse, because now people claim there isn't a bug AND it's seemingly _not_ possible to disable xrandr manually.

See the comments in http://linux-tipps.blogspot.com/2009/03/fixing-high-latency-with-kde4-display.html: There are people, who have "disabled" in their ~/.local/screen-configurations.xml, but still they get xrandr polling in their xorg log again after upgrading from 4.1 to 4.2. So how can people keep saying there's no problem. I've accepted that I have to skip 4.2 and stay with KDE 4.1 for now, but I'd really like to be able to use 4.3 again.
