Seems like a GPU glitch. What GPU are you using? And are you using the Wayland or X11 session? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > Seems like a GPU glitch. What GPU are you using? And are you using the > Wayland or X11 session? Intel Atom D425 GPU and X11 session Is this a regression, or has it always happened on your system? (In reply to Zamundaaa from comment #5) > Is this a regression, or has it always happened on your system? I don't know, I didn't use plasma 5 on this PC. *** Bug 474244 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Likely a graphics driver regression. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #8) > Likely a graphics driver regression. what is the fix for my graphics driver problem for my hardware: i915 Intel GFX Driver? will this issue be fixed in the upcoming drivers update? I am kind of stuck with this situation since long time. Hope the drivers get updates soon... Hoping for the best solution for this issue. Thanks & Regards, Gourab It's pipewire sourceItem, it has a red background as a leftover debugging phase if it can't load the main stream. Just had exact same problem using Gentoo Linux on Intel Atom N570 with kernel 6.1.57 and this video:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Atom Processor D4xx/D5xx/N4xx/N5xx Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:a011] (rev 02)
Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Atom Processor D4xx/D5xx/N4xx/N5xx Integrated Graphics Controller [1025:0590]
Kernel driver in use: i915
Using KDE 5.27.8 on X11
Qt 5.15.11
mesa 23.1.8
xf86-video-intel 2.99.917_p20230201
Workaround:
1. Using kcmshell5 kcm_qtquicksettings switched renderer to software mode.
2. Turned off video acceleration in other apps where possible (this helped with Steam client)
Red rectangle backgrounds is gone. So is acceleration.
