I’m having an issue with my desktop flickering after my monitors wake up on KDE. When I first turn on my PC it’s fine, but if I walk away and let the monitors turn off when I then come back the desktop starts flickering. It’s only the desktop that flickers, if I have an app open full screen it’s fine but as soon as I minimise it the flickering comes back. It doesn’t seem to be an issue if I leave it long enough for my actual PC to go to sleep, only the monitor. This happens on both Wayland and X11.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this, and if not is it worth submitting a bug report on kde? Or is it probably just something dodgy in my setup? This is with an Nvidia GPU which I suspect has something to do with it (I’ve tried with both the nvidia and nvidia-open drivers). I’ve already had to change the settings so that the screen locks before the monitors sleep otherwise it was causing kwin to crash and I’d get stuck at the login screen for a minute after resuming.
I’d recommend flashing your distro on a USB drive (it could be the live installer or honestly just the whole darn thing if you want it to be persistent), boot up off the driver, and start playing around to see if you can reproduce the problem.
