This shows what the wallpaper looks like after logging into plasma shell before running any commands to restart plasmashell or kwin.
This shows the double wallpaper after `plasmashell --replace` has been executed. |

This shows the double wallpaper after `plasmashell --replace` has been executed.
I am attaching a second screenshot that shows the double wallpaper visible after `plasmashell --replace` has been executed via Alt+F2, but before `kwin_x11 --replace` has been executed.
Note that I hit print screen a few times to make the infinite recursion in the spectacle window look nice. I also had to make it a JPEG because the PNG exceeded the file size limit.
What happens when you right click on the black area? (In reply to David Edmundson from comment #2) > What happens when you right click on the black area? Nothing. No context menu appears. I just changed the global scale back to 100%, logged out and logged back in and the issue still happened. I did a reboot just in case some state had persisted from the old setting, but it happened again after the reboot. I am not sure what the cause could be anymore other than my HDMI 2.1 4K monitor running at 144Hz. I had upgraded from a 144Hz 1080p monitor and only saw this issue after the upgrade and the HDMI compatibility mode on my monitor does not trigger this, so the trigger for this seems to be HDMI 2.1. :/ (In reply to Richard Yao from comment #3) > (In reply to David Edmundson from comment #2) > > What happens when you right click on the black area? > > Nothing. No context menu appears. This turns out to be racy. I just had a login where this did not happen. Then I logged out and back in, only for it to happen again. Nearly every time, it happens on my system. If you were on Wayland, I'd say it's probably Bug 449212, but so far that's only manifested for Wayland users. I discovered that doing these commands will workaround it without restarting plasmashell or kwin: xrandr -s 1920x1080 xrandr -s 3840x2160 This is also present with nvidia driver version 515.43.04. The glitch occurs with both the closed source and open source kernel modules. Could you test if https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1781 fixes the issue?

This appears to have fixed it. I did not test that pull request by itself, but instead tested 5.25.3, which appears to contain it. |
