Created attachment 170938 [details] All my windows except the active one are shown black SUMMARY I was never able to use Wayland, since all windows are shown plain black, except the active one (clicking or hovering). I tried with all Plasma 5.X, with 6.04 and now with 6.1.0. I have to install the X11 version. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start wayland 2. My usual consoles and gkrellm are all black, except for the active one. OBSERVED RESULT Except for the panel and the wallpaper, all inactive windows are shown solid black. EXPECTED RESULT windows shown. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 40 / Plasma 6.1.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0 KDE Frameworks Version: kf5-frameworkintegration-5.116.0.2.fc40.x86_64, kf5-frameworkintegration-libs-5.116.0.2.fc40.x86_64, kf6-frameworkintegration-6.3.0.1.fc40.x86_64, kf6-frameworkintegration-libs-6.3.0.1.fc40.x86_64 Qt Version: qt-4.8.7-76.fc40.x86_64 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Screenshot attached.
Do you have some non-default effects installed and enabled? Does this also happen in a live boot of Fedora KDE 40?

The only non-default thing that I could think of is a tiny plasma script to inform window position and size when moving and resizing. Wayland in a live boot Fedora KDE 40 works perfectly. Probably there is some plasma X11 config that is messing with wayland...?
Updated to Plasma 6.1.1-1. Now startplasma-wayland shows a solid black screen and a cursor. I had to kill plasma from a virtual console.

BTW, I have 2 computers with different hardware but the same problem.
Upgraded to plasma 6.1.2.1. Now one computer works fine, while the other still has the same problem. The computer that works fine respects my configuration (no animations, etc). The one that has the problem, does not respect it.
I can try copying the whole KDE configuration from one box to the other to see what happens... Which folders should I copy?
It seems that the problem relies on the Compositor (whatever that means). If I enable the compositor for startplasma-x11, I also don't see the windows. Same problem occurs if I press Alt-Shift-F12. I do not know how to disable the compositor in Wayland, and Alt-Shift-F12 does not seem to do anything.
