Description brothermechanic 2016-10-03 16:02:37 UTC
Hello
My system is Asus G75VW
Gentoo ~amd64
nvidia gtx660m

When Unreal Engine 4.11 is running i get terrible artifacts on all kde5 versions (kde4 was better) like don't updating panel,
screen slow updates, black restangles 1-2 second when i close window, screen tearing, etc

Please hear to me and may be fix it.
Thank you!

Unreal Engine works fine!

I'm not a Gentoo dev but a fellow KDE user that never saw such problems. The information you posted so far here is not enough for someone trying to understand the problem / reproduce it. First, Unreal Engine is, well..., an engine. What application based on it do you run? Do you run it fullscreen and ALT+TAB out of it or in a window? Also, the output of the following commands would be useful:

emerge --info kwin
glxinfo

Try adding a window rule (right click title bar → more actions → special behavior for this application) and then on the "appearance & fixes" tab do "block compositing" → "enforce" → "No"

i think the problem is in plasmashell

Not a packaging issue. Please report upstream.
