Set Display Arrangement on boot
I’m using three monitors and I have my display arrangement set up correctly but when I reboot, the config doesn’t apply until I log in. I seem to remember a command to cp the config file somewhere but I’m unable to find that page with the link again. Does anyone happen to know?

Assuming you are on plasma
Ah yes that did it. Thanks!
how did you set up the arrangement in the first place?
im always logging in on my tiny screen instead of my main one lol
you can disable all screens except the one you wanna log into and click the button I indicated above
then re-enable all your screens
on login you should be on the screen that was enabled at the time
wdym by dissabling a screen? turning it off ?
when in display config you have this option
On each of your screens
aaah now that something i would not have tought off, would be nice if there was a menu to do this

yeah it is a bit counterintuitive I think it is a sort of workaround they found to make this work and it hasn't been touched so far
Now if only once logged in, I could get the same functionality for the login screen to only show on one 😅
