Bug Description

Kubuntu 20.04.1 daily QA-test on
dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

When I adjusted display.settings to have landscape+portrait, the landscape display became unreadable, and I obviously made mistake as portrait was upside-down.. GUI isn't usable as menu is on unusable display

this box appears to have IDENTICAL files in /var/crash reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/1889960 but are likely unrelated. They were `ubuntu-bug` reported

This will be filed against INCORRECT package sorry; I suspect it's radeon related..

Much of the time the image shown on my-left display was changing (lower panel portion especially, also I think where cursor would be on terminal), about 3 changes per second, but at times it became static for awhile.
