Since this snapshot update my screen display is occasionally pushed to the left by about 10% and the only way to recover is to reboot. It usually happens once i log out of a session and return to the login screen but today it happened on boot up...xf86-video-nouveau: 1.0.15
Does it still happen if you 'zypper rm xf86-video-nouveau'?
I've not tried that, i'll give it a go after i've sent this email
Mine's been like that many moons. removing that meant i ended up at the cli with no GUI so i reinstalled it
Exactly which gfxchip do you have ('inxi -Gxx')? inxi -Gxx Graphics: Card-1: NVIDIA GT218 [GeForce 210] driver: nouveau v: kernel bus ID: 01:00.0 chip ID: 10de:0a65 Display: server: X.Org 1.20.0 driver: nouveau compositor: kwin x11 resolution: 1680x1050~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0 128 bits) v: 3.3 Mesa 18.1.5 compat-v: 3.1 direct render: Yes Its an old one GT218 [GEforce 210]
$ inxi -Gxx Graphics: Card-1: NVIDIA GT218 [GeForce 210] driver: nouveau v: kernel bus ID: 01:00.0 chip ID: 10de:0a65 Display: server: X.Org 1.20.1 driver: modesetting unloaded: fbdev,vesa alternate: nouveau,nv,nvidia resolution: 1920x1200~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: NVA8 v: 3.3 Mesa 18.1.6 compat-v: 3.1 direct render: Yes
Which cable type do you use to connect it to your display? I use HDMI ATM. It seems rather slow, but without apparent errors other than no sound. Just a standard cable as per what came with the monitor - its been working fine for years, its just after this snapshot. I tried changing to SDDM to see if that worked okay but that was painful, kdeinit5 crashed on login and systemd plus kdeinit5 were grabbing tons of CPU making any work impossible - back to kdm now.
TW just updated Xorg server from 1.20.0 to 1.20.1. Maybe go ahead with another dup & see if it still happens. Here I have yet to see it, but this is just a test box, so doesn't spend much time up. Also I have explicitly disabled compositing, and run only KDE3 on it.
Yes, just seen that, i'll update and see if that makes a difference.
