Ok, that sounds more like another issue. This seems to be another effect of a
problem in qt5.4 regarding QScreen returning null in unexpected places. And is
currently known to reproducibly fail on machines with one display off, for
instance, closing the lid in a laptop that has an external monitor connected.
This is supposedly fixed in qt5.5, currently in experimental.

I'm downgrading the severity as the problem went from every machine to only one.

Happy hacking,
