SUMMARY my cursor is a glitch after upgrading from 6.4 latest (cant remember exact version) to plasma 6.5.0-1. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Ran pacman -Syu 2. Allowed the updates 3. reboot OBSERVED RESULT upgraded to plasma 6.5.0-1, but cursor is a multiline horozontal glitch. the clickable area is the left most part of the glitch. cursor behavoir is also sometime buggy when trying to right-click or select text. as a tempory workaround i have removed then readded the psmouse module using $ modprobe -r psmouse $ modprobe psmouse but for now i'll avoid right-click and selecting text with touchpad. keyboard shortcuts for selecting text work fine. EXPECTED RESULT the cursor should just work SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Are you running the radeon/amdgpu driver on an "old" AMD GPU? If yes, this is probably a duplicate of bug 510930. I have requested a patch release of kwin in Arch Linux, see here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/kwin/-/issues/14 If not, what is your graphics driver and which GPU do you have?

Processors: 4 x AMD A8-7410 APU with AMD Radeon R5 Graphics Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon R5 Graphics thanks. didnt know of that report. tried searching for cursor issues as well
Even on NAVI2 with AMS I'm getting random glitches on the leftmost column and topmost row of pixels on the mouse cursor.
