Hi Michele,

Agreed there should not be two kdesktops.

However .xsession-errors shows them using different lock files:

[2019/07/11 05:09:30.488] [tdecore] Deleting stale 
lockfile /tmp/tde-mgb/kdesktop_lock_lockfile.:0.0
[2019/07/11 05:09:30.489] [tdecore] Deleting stale 
lockfile /tmp/tde-mgb/kdesktop_lock_lockfile.:0.1

And yet they both decide these lockfiles are stale a couple
dozen times per second.

Not sure why the lockfiles refer to :0.0 and :0.1 when the
two displays should be :0 (TDE) and :1 (not TDE).

When I disable the second display TDE works fine with a
single :0 lock file as expected.
