SUMMARY I recently installed Parrot OS on a virtualbox to test it as a daily driver and I decided kde was the de for me. However I am running into a few problems. Firstly, about a minute after startup I notice letters disappearing from most system text. For example when I hover over the items in my taskbar some letters will be missing, this can be seen when I hover over the internet button in my taskbar https://i.imgur.com/45TH4vP.png. Secondly, the effect worsens. A little bit after letters start vanishing, the box does too and instead the box contains a shot of what's behind it https://i.imgur.com/y0fVImj.png. Lastly, whenever I either log out, restart or shut down the system, it throws an error https://i.imgur.com/exQGCaC.png STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start up Parrot OS Home in Plasma kde 2. Just wait a bit 3. OBSERVED RESULT As described in the summary EXPECTED RESULT None of that I guess HOST COMPUTER Windows: 10 VIRTUALBOX Linux: Parrot Home KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION None of the problems occur on MATE or GNOME
