Hello,
I have connected a TV to my laptop after a couple of months again. There have been some updates to the system in the meantime. I am running KDE.
The problem is, the screens have been merged into one virtual screen with double the resolution:

They used to be separate screens as viewed by the X server - I need to be able to specify the screen when I run commands (for example for color calibration). I have no idea how to separate them except creating a static configuration for the X server. When I switch the window positions or change them to mirror using xrandr, it keeps it as one screen, just changes its dimensions. Thanks for any tips!
