The "script":
xrandr --dpi 108 --output DP-1 --primary --mode 2560x1440 --output HDMI-1 --mode 2560x1080 --above DP-1 --output DVI-D-1 --mode 1920x1200 --right-of DP-1 --output VGA-1 --mode 1680x1050 --above DVI-D-1

IceWM layout is as expected in TW (via SDDM):
4480 x 2520
	2560x1080 upper left
	2560x1440 lower left
	1680x1050 upper right
	1920x1200 lower right

So is TDE in 15.1 (via TDM):
4480 x 2520
	2560x1080 upper left
	2560x1440 lower left
	1680x1050 upper right
	1920x1200 lower right

Plasma in TW does not (via SDDM):
8720 x 1440, all 4 displays side by side by side by side

The script does work if I run it after starting a Plasma session.

I don't have any multi-head PCs with KDE & openSUSE except with TW. IOW, all my
Leaps are running TDE or KDE3, with TDM or KDM3, so I can't tell if Plasma in
openSUSE ever started up respecting the xrandr script. In Fedora 32 I have Plasma
on a 3 output PC, but it's using LightDM rather than SDDM.

I have one 15.2 with Plasma on a single head PC. The script is respected for the
purpose of specifying DPI.

If there's a bug here, whose is it?

	KDE?
	openSUSE?
	SDDM?
	TW but not Leap?
	Xorg?

FWIW, in Debians I have the script in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/, but don't have KDE
on any of them anyway (TDE only, working as expected).

Suggestions? (not to include user-specific configuration in any form or manner)
