Bug ID: 494876
Summary: Night color makes mouse cursor glitch or invisible
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.2.1
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: night color
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After upgrading from Plasma 6.1.x to 6.2.1, I noticed my cursor starts to
glitch after night light comes into effect. For example, if I hover over a link
in Chrome, I see a misaligned arrow icon instead of the hand icon. If I
restart, the cursor is completely invisible - still works, triggers hover
effects and clicks, but invisible. Disabling night color immediately makes all
problems go away.
It might be related to Nvidia + Wayland, not sure. I'm on the latest drivers:
560.35.03-14. I'm also using 3 monitors - sometimes the cursor is glitching
only on some of them, not all.
Strange enough, I wanted to record the behavior using Loom and it's *not*
showing in the recording. So, I had to record with my phone.
Phone recording (mouse glitches):

Loom recording (mouse shows up correctly, also no color temperature change):

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable night light during the night
OBSERVED RESULT
1. Cursor icons are broken, cursor becomes invisible after restart.
EXPECTED RESULT
1. Cursor and icons to work as expected.
