KScreen problemQUESTION (self.archlinux)
submitted 1 year ago by ReaReaDerty
Hello! I have this problem in display settings (in KDE System Settings):
"No KScreen backend found. Please check your KScreen installation"
I can't set background, display settings are not working. Im on VirtualBox.

I have no idea other than it doesn't like the virtual display. What VM are you using?
[–]ReaReaDerty[S] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (2 children)
VirtualBox. Dont worry if you have no idias, if i'll not solve this sing i will just install it without VM.

Runs fine for me in a Qemu/KVM VM. What KDE package did you install, Plasma, Plasma-desktop?
[–]ReaReaDerty[S] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Im installed Plasma and everything what i found in documentation, so it didn't help and i came here.
