[kwin] [Bug 383179] KDE desktop compositing occasionally causes flickering and frozen window contents
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383179 --- Comment #11 from Mircea Kitsune --- This issue somehow still exists and occurs to this day. It's X11 specific, never seen it on Wayland... with WL Plasma still being unstable I have to stick to X for now. It's one of the biggest annoyances I have to deal with: It often feels like a process has frozen as its window contents no longer update, then it starts flickering wildly and I realize it's this thing again... I need to hit Alt + Shift + F12 twice to restart desktop compositing. I recently tried changing all possible options under Configure Desktop - Display and Monitor - Compositor: None of them will resolve this, any setting in there will still cause this to occur. As a reminder I use amdgpu / Mesa. Only way to reduce occurrences is to reboot daily: It typically appears to start happening after 1 to 3 days of continuous uptime. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383179 --- Comment #9 from Mircea Kitsune --- I'm still seeing this every now and then... very rarely, but apparently it will occur at certain times. I'm curious if anyone else is getting those issues and can confirm them. Is this even a KDE problem or a video driver bug? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383179 --- Comment #8 from Mircea Kitsune--- (In reply to Hector Martin from comment #7) Yes, sounds like the same thing. I missed out the rectangle detail; I noticed that sometimes only certain rectangular areas will update when an event happens near them, while the rest of the application remains drawn the same way. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383179 Hector Martinchanged: What|Removed |Added CC||hec...@marcansoft.com --- Comment #7 from Hector Martin --- I've been experiencing a seemingly identical issue for months too. I'm on an Intel GPU, which suggests the problem is in kwin or a shared part of Mesa. When window contents freeze, sometimes they are partially updated, triggering an effect where only some segments/rectangles of the screen see into the updated window. Also, I have the scroll wheel on the window title bar mapped to change window opacity, and doing so always causes the full window to refresh properly. Restarting kwin fixes the problem, temporarily. It would be interesting if the original reporter sees this behavior too to further confirm we're talking about the same problem. I'm on Gentoo Linux amd64, kernel 4.11.8-gentoo (but this has been going on for multiple kernel releases now), Core i7-3820QM. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
