Well, on my old rig, the second screen, TV, never had the plasma panel.  On the new rig, it showed up on both from the beginning.  I guess I could just delete/remove it.  I don't really see a need for two anyway.  I get why the primary has one.  Just no idea why the second does but yet the third doesn't.  It looks like if the default is to add one to all screens, then the TV would have one too.  It's not like the puter knows I only have two of the monitors sitting in front of me and the third is elsewhere.  ;-)  I might add, another odd thing that started after a recent update.  When I logout of KDE or when first booting and am on the sddm login screen, my first monitor powers off.  The second monitor stays on and has the login screen as does the TV screen.  Yet the primary screen turns off.  At first when we got past the wonky monitor problem, all three would stay on and mirror each other.  Now it doesn't.  I might add, if I switch to a console, screen one turns back on and all three mirror each other.  I kinda like that because if I need to do something that takes a bit, I don't have to go to the living room to turn the TV back on again.  This monitor situation is getting plenty weird.  I never know when it is going to change something and work weirdly.  I don't know what is changing it tho.  I haven't changed anything.  Dale :-)  :-)  --------------D012664AF22D73D389686044 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The "... plasma thing" = Plasma Panel container

Can be placed on any screen edge.

Can be more than one.

Starting from the left, it contains: 

1. Kmenu (i.e. application menu/launcher)
2. Desktop pager (virtual desktops)
3. Task manager (shortcut icons to applications and open applications)
4. System Tray (notifications, Kmix, clock, etc.)
