[Bug 1865837] Re: Lubuntu 20.04 qa-test install; flashing at sddm greeter when mouse at top panel (pre-login)
This same problem is on another distro with LXQt and SDDM package. I checked this with Fedora 34 LXQt Spin and I have identical issue. So this is not only problem with Lubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865837 Title: Lubuntu 20.04 qa-test install; flashing at sddm greeter when mouse at top panel (pre-login) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1865837/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried Lubuntu 21.04 (hirsute hippo) and I can see that is better because you removed themes in log in screen but bug is still exist on my Radeon card (Radeon X2300). You should consider fix it. I will try other distro to test this.

I can confirm this bug on a Core2Quad Q6600 with integrated graphics. Interacting with any element on the sddm login screen causes white flickering and flashing as the screen repaints. It makes it almost unusable. This is a fresh Lubuntu 20.04 install. I tried all of the sddm-theme-* packages in the official repo and they all do the same. Viewing those themes in sddm-greeter with --test-mode after logging in is totally fine with no glitches. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865837 Title: Lubuntu 20.04 qa-test install; flashing at sddm greeter when mouse at top panel (pre-login) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1865837/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I noticed this again after last install again on dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e6850, 5gb, amd/ati radeon rv516/x1300/x1550) but not until after I'd already closed & passed the qa-test install. Installed again using Lubuntu 20.04 daily ISO (20200407) and again this issue, which was noticed as I moved cursor near the top panel.. The annoying strobe-effect is only noticed at initial `sddm` greeter, and only when the pointer is over anything actionable on top panel (session, reboot, power off etc) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865837 Title: Lubuntu 20.04 qa-test install; flashing at sddm greeter when mouse at top panel (pre-login) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1865837/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
