Is there an NVIDIA GPU involved? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > Is there an NVIDIA GPU involved? There is! I've got an RTX 4060. Driver's version: 560.35.03 I tried switching to iGPU mode (AMD Radeon 610M), but the issue still persists. I'm not able to reproduce this on git-master with a laptop that has a dedicated nvidia GPU, and an integrated Intel. It's set to use the nvidia GPU for external monitors, and has the proprietary drivers installed (570.153.02) can you open 'kcmshell6 qtquicksettings' and confirm the renderer is set to auto/opengl (In reply to David Edmundson from comment #7) > can you open 'kcmshell6 qtquicksettings' and confirm the renderer is set to > auto/opengl I ran it before reporting the bug, I forgot to mention, but yes, it was set to auto. Update: I've "fixed" the issue by resetting KDE and deleting these config/cache files. It may have just been some corrupted file. ``` cd ~ rm -rf .cache/plasmashell* rm -rf .cache/kwin rm -rf .cache/krunner/ rm -rf .cache/ksycoca6* rm -rf .config/plasma* rm -rf .config/kde* rm -rf .config/kwinrc ``` I backed them up in case anyone's interested in diving into this, but I suspect not. In hindsight, I should have deleted those files one at a time to zone in on the issue... (Oh, and rebooting afterwards, of course) I was also running into this issue on Endeavouros, but managed to fix it simply by removing the kpipewire package, reinstalling it and rebooting. Not sure what the issue was, or why a few people seem to have had it in the last month, but it at least seems to have an easy fix.

I just ran into this with kbuntu25.04/kwin4:6.3.4. I only set aside .cache/kwin and rebooted and the issue was resolved. At least for the current poweron. I've not tested if it will return after next reboot/shutdown. |
