SUMMARY Transitioning from/to Night Light mode causes visual glitches on one of my monitors only when both are on during the transition. I'm currently on Plasma 6.4.5, but the issue is still there on 6.5. I hadn't encountered the issue up to 6.3.5, I updated directly to 6.4.4 which was the first version I saw it, so it may have been introduced earlier than that. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Enable/Disable Night Light OR Wait for automatic transition OBSERVED RESULT Visual glitches on screen during transition EXPECTED RESULT Transition without visual glitches SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.16.10-zen1-1-zen (64-bit) (Same behavior on 6.17.7-arch1-1 (64-bit) too) Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core Processor Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (30.9 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT Also, I tried to replicate the issue under the same conditions in the following Live ISOs in my system but without success: - EndeavourOS Mercury (Plasma 6.2.5) - Manjaro 251013 KDE minimal (Plasma 6.3.6) - KDE Neon 251030 (Plasma 6.5.1) and also on my up-to-date laptop also without success: Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.7-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (29.3 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics
Created attachment 186521 [details] Visual glitching when transitioning from/to Night Light mode Only happens when second monitor is on
Please temporarily set the "color accuracy" display setting to "prefer color accuracy" to prevent KWin from using the kms lut for night light, and test this again. Does it go away, or at least change?
(In reply to Zamundaaa from comment #2) > Please temporarily set the "color accuracy" display setting to "prefer color > accuracy" to prevent KWin from using the kms lut for night light, and test > this again. Does it go away, or at least change? Sorry for the late response, changed both monitors to "Prefer Color Accuracy" and I haven't seen any glitching from a few quick tests so far, so hopefully that was the cause. Thanks for the help!
