The state of the desktop when this error occurred.

After prolonged use, the application window displayed on the desktop will become transparent and freeze, not responding to any events . This problem occurs almost every time, and there is no crash message. The frozen window is not limited to kwrite, I have also encountered window problems with chrome and edge.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  after prolonged use.

OBSERVED RESULT
The window becomes transparent, freezes, and does not respond to any events.

EXPECTED RESULT
the same as above.

Are you using multiple virtual desktops? If so, this is likely Bug 438552.

No, Not using virtual desktops, But it does have a ghost window on the desktop and I can't get it to respond using any means.

Thanks for the info.

Are you on Wayland, or X11.

I am using X11 on plasma
Comment 6 Nate Graham 2022-04-18 14:28:12 UTC
Thanks. I've heard other reports of this too on X11, but I am unable to reproduce the issue on Wayland at all. And I haven't seen it on X11 in a month or two either.

Would you be able to try current git master version of KWin and see if it still happens to you?
