After downgrading the listed packages back to their various qt-5.14.2 versions, everything has returned to normal on my desktop - compositing is working fine, and KDE panels and desktop backgrounds and things are being drawn correctly. (In reply to Michael Moon from comment #0) > I'm using nvidia-drivers-450.57-r1 and I haven't updated it since August Please use a version that is actually in Gentoo repository, and try with latest 455.23.04-r1 in ~arch as well. This is a clear Nvidia bug suspect. Nothing to do from KDE proj side. Re trouble with Nvidia 450.xx see bug 747472. With nvidia-drivers-455.28 and QT-5.15.1 the problem appears to be resolved, so I guess it's confirmed as an nvidia-drivers problem. WRT the linked bugs (thanks for the links btw), this is a desktop with only nVidia graphics, not a system with dual graphics. Should Gentoo's QT packages add a blocker between QT-5.15 and nvidia-drivers-450 to reduce the chance of others having to search this bug? After a reboot my plasmashell is crashing on an infinite loop in Qt5Quick, but I guess that's a separate issue which I'll make a separate bug report about (In reply to Michael Moon from comment #5) > Should Gentoo's QT packages add a blocker between QT-5.15 and > nvidia-drivers-450 No, this strategy would produce an insane amount of blockers. |
