Appears to be fixed in 5.25.90. Same underlying issue as Bug 456122. This is fixed in Plasma 5.26 (not the beta, but the final version)! I think I also saw something similar happen to logout screen as well. I'll wait for 5.26, and report back if it happens again. |
Created attachment 152231 [details] Issue present on a screenshot SUMMARY I run two displays, 1080p internal and 1440p external, external is being driven by Nvidia, as verified by gpu not idling in nvidia-settings. If I set same resolution for both displays, changing screen layouts proceeds smoothly with no glitches, howerver if external runs at higher resolution and I switch to external only, I get wallpaper corruption. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set higher resolution on secondary screen. 2. Switch between internal only, extended, and finally to external only, just to make sure that more than one wallpaper is cached. 3. In external only mode two wallpapers are present, main on the left, and a piece of second on the right. 4. Clicking on desktop makes main wallpaper span whole desktop, switching to some application brings the glitch back, clicking back and forth fixes it eventually. OBSERVED RESULT Two wallpapers are present on a single screen EXPECTED RESULT Only one wallpaper should be present when only one screen is being driven.
