SUMMARY Mouse cursor appears as slightly wavy parallel lines - colors black, dark blue, light blue - roughly 1cm tall by 2cm wide. May be specific to my graphics card. I do not experience this on any other hardware running KDE Neon. Also possible I have some sort of corrupted config file I don't know how to clear... STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Boot machine. Cursor is NORMAL at cold boot login screen but persists after first login. 2. Log in - have confirmed with a brand new user profile and problem still occurs. OBSERVED RESULT Cursor as described. Don't know a way to give you a good screen shot that includes the cursor... EXPECTED RESULT Normal Breeze themed cursor SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon User Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.9.2 Kernel Version: 6.14.0-33-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.3 GiB usable) Graphics Processor 1: AMD BARTS Graphics Processor 2: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 2000 Manufacturer: Apple Inc. Product Name: iMac12,2 System Version: 1.0 Additional Info: I suspect this could be a corrupted system file and NOT a true bug - I'd appreciate your help running this possibility to ground. Have already tested new user profile and problem remains.
This does seem to be a bug that is specific to AMD Bart graphics processor. I booted the machine from an external SSD with current version of Plasma 6.5 KDE Neon and the results are identical -- normal cursor before login. Corrupted cursor upon login. Appears the issue is NOT corruption within my local instance of KDE on the affected hardware.
