--- Comment #8 from bourne.ident...@hotmail.com <bourne.ident...@hotmail.com> --- Hi Adrian/others, #1 <<< Does the flashing / tearing problem also exist if you run Plasma 5 desktop as a different ... >>> I doubt that. For about a day, the flashing/tearing was not visible/apparent enough, and the System settings applet too worked well. It was only after a day of use that window restoration from panel became a spectacle. When I thought this might be something related to Desktop Effects, I tried turning DE off. But then the System Settings applet went bonkers too. #2 I shall be running K5 again only after setting up the debug environment - I have never launched a debug environment like this before. So I shall need clear instruction. a) Should I reinstall FreeBSD ? The current installation was without kernel-dbg distribution. b) On a clean box, I put 'WITH_DEBUG=yes' in /etc/make.conf and then build xorg and kde5. Is that what I should do to get the backtrace setup ready ? CAICOS is R5 230 (My OEM is Sapphire Radeon). Actually it comes as a nasty solution to me that I could ship out the Radeon card and put in an NVidia card. A not-so-ingenuous solution, but a solution none the less that I will keep in the back of my mind. Thanks. Manish Jain -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
