https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485425 --- Comment #7 from fililip --- One final note though, to whom it may concern: on AMD/NVIDIA systems launching Steam has to be done like so: VK_DRIVER_FILES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json steam This also works. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485425 --- Comment #6 from fililip --- Oh, alright, suspecting that it might be relevant, I unloaded the nvidia driver and removed the card from the PCI tree on my PC, everything is 100% fine now. I do wonder what Steam is doing with nvidia that is causing this though. Regular PRIME offloading does not trigger this, only Steam seems to do so.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485425 --- Comment #4 from fililip --- I've just checked it with the Show Paint effect: before Steam has ever been opened during a session on an empty desktop everything is fine. After Steam has run at least once, the effect constantly triggers, even on the secondary screen. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485425 --- Comment #3 from fililip --- Do you exhibit the CPU usage issue though? On my system, kwin_wayland's CPU usage increases by around 8% even after Steam is terminated. Restarting KWin helps. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485425 --- Comment #2 from Zamundaaa --- I can see VRR "breaking" when Steam is open, because it's almost constantly updating its window at the full refresh rate, but it works again once I close it or focus a different window that updates with at least 30Hz -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
