Is there a difference with composition enabled vs. compositing disabled? Please use the show paint effect to see what repaints. If there is constant flickering in the panel we need to reassign to Plasma. (In reply to Christoph Feck from comment #1) > Is there a difference with composition enabled vs. compositing disabled? Yes. With compositing disabled (alt-shift-f12) CPU utilisation by kwin_X11 drops to < 1.0% There appears no noticeable difference when Show Seconds is enabled.

The panel repaints only at 1 sec intervals as the time updates. please provide the output of qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation This is with the normal configuration used on this machine, apart from Digital clock temporarily has "Show Seconds" disabled.

You don't have any hardware driver installed. This is the software emulation driver. It is expected that this one requires more CPU.
The only way to fix it is to install proper drivers for your system.
(In reply to Martin Flöser from comment #7) > The only way to fix it is to install proper drivers for your system. Could you please elaborate on that? I'm currently using the nouveau oss driver, do you mean I should use the proprietary nvidia driver instead? Apologies, please ignore my comment #8 Mesa-dri-nouveau was not installed. This is a separate package on openSUSE as it is regarded as experimental. Thanks for your time. |
