What do you mean by "reset"?
(In reply to Vlad Zagorodniy from comment #1) > What do you mean by "reset"? Sorry, I meant restart I get this notification every time KWin hangs and restarts: "Desktop effects were restarted due to a graphics reset"
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 385324 ***
After reading [the suggestion from the other bug report](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385324#c8), I realized forgot to mention that I actually have ForceCompositionPipeline enabled on both of my monitors. I'm currently trying out the script and will report back if it works. Though I hope this gets fixed without the need for a workaround.
Just tried the workaround script from bug 385324, comment 15 Doesn't work.
Please don't reopen a bug report when it was marked as "RESOLVED". As Martin said in 385324, you need to report to your driver vendor that the driver triggers the graphics reset. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 385324 ***
Posted it on [URL="https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1044795/linux/kwin-randomly-restarts/"]NVIDIA's forums[/URL] and messaged their customer support. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.
