Bug ID: 362955 Summary: (Auto)Suspending compositing sometimes results in stale non-composited picture Product: kwin Version: 5.6.4 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: compositing Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: chrno-sphe...@hotmail.com Created attachment 98920 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=98920&action=edit Support information while the issue is NOT present. Not sure if it's a bug in kwin or plasmashell. I have a kwin rule to disable compositing once mpv launches. Sometimes, this results in plasmashell displaying a stale image - this affects the whole UI. For example, the icon-only task manager shows applications that were running the last time compositing was activated. Starting new applications does neither display the loading circle animation, nor show the application icon once the application starts. The more annoying part about it is that the clock and the widgets are showing stale information, too. I once nearly missed and appointment because both clocks were still saying it's 16:30 while it was starting to get dark... I have also remember being able to trigger it by manually suspending compositing, but that might have been after it was already bugged by launching mpv. Arch linux x64, fully updated as of yesterday, nvidia 340xx blob (260GTX). Has been happening since forever, but that's not surprising since I'm on the legacy branch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
