Description Paul 2023-12-02 11:58:02 UTC
SUMMARY
Attempting to use the network manager results in screen and panel corruption.

This is a rather elderly openSUSE Tumblweed machine. TW is normally kept up to date although the machine is only used as a "spare", I can't be precise as to when this issue first appeared.

This problem can be reproduced with a new user and the screen shots attached are those from a new, default, user.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Launch Network Manager
2.  Select a network connection
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
1. At initial launch all is OK: Screenshot 1
2. Network Manager and the Plasma Panel now become corrupt: Screenshot 2

EXPECTED RESULT
Normal operation...

I guess I must be the only one seeing this issue :(

Network Manager is the only Plasma Applet that triggers this screen/video corruption, I don't see the issue with, for example, Digital Clock / Calendar, Disks & Devices, Printers, Notifications, etc...

I appreciate I'm running Plasma on very elderly HW, but, I would like to resolve this issue if possible.
