Buggy on plasma 6.1 (black background) #443
Comments
Hi there! Thanks for the report. Does this happen with all applications? Or just with specific ones? And did you observe this with older Plasma versions as well? I would assume that this is an issue in KWin and not something we can fix on the effect side of things... |
Sorry for the delay. Yeah, after some tinkering I think this is a kwin bug, this happens after wake from sleep/hibernate in about 10% of the cases (on amd and nvidia, but not on intel it seems). I am not able to consistently reproduce this though :( |
I had a similar issue while ago, was persistent on my old machine at some point. Creating a new user fixed the issue than, IIRC it was some messy configuration on |
My case is similar. |
I think perhaps you adjusted the config and the config gets written improperly in kwinrc. I installed it on plasma 6.1 also, here's an example mod on the config it wrote for me:
It doesn't like the Gradient[1-5]=invalid entries and I get exactly the same results described above. If you simply remove those it works properly again after logging out and back in, no need for complete reboot. A bit of a nuisance if you want to play with the config and I have no idea what to do with the gradient settings (color picker?), but it's no problem after that's done. |
Also, when starting kwin manually, it complains that $HOME/.local/share/kwin/effects/kwin4_effect_fire/metadata.json has a string setting for EnabledByDefault, when it should be boolean, so I changed this line in the file: |
I believe this is fixed in the latest relase (changelog) |
Unfortunately, I did not find an answer to my problem.
In my effect configuration with standard settings these variables are missing, they appear when I set the colors myself, but it still does not change anything in the operation of the effect, and I would say that it is worse. bez.tytulu.mp4But when on wayland in the terminal I type: dzala.mp4 |
Do you have a color profile selected in "Display & Monitor"? According to this report it can cause these kind of problems... and setting it to "None" worked for me |
I really don't believe it. I struggled with this for so long. My colleague thanks for this information. I never would have come across that the problem is related to color profiles, I had it set to built-in. I set it to “NONE” and everything works as it should. I am really grateful to you. |
