[opensuse-factory] Konsole cursor bug on Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti
I upgraded my graphics card to a Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti on my TW system. I use the Nvidia driver 384.90 from the TW Nvidia repository. Unfortunately I can't use Konsole with Vi anymore. If I move the cursor fast, then the cursor image did not get cleaned correctly. You can see the problem here: https://paste.opensuse.org/46142803 The file is empty, but you see several "_" chars from the former cursor positions. I didn't had this problem with the Nvidia GTX 750 card. Any ideas how to fix or work-around the problem?

Does this also happen when you press ctrl+alt+F1 and start vi while in console? Or, is it only when using konsole from the gui desktop. -- Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Log in to IceWM. Can you replicate the same problem? -- Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I'm not sure that's a graphics card problem. Have your monitor DPI changed? Have you tried use other font in Konsole or other font size? -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

Install gvim. Can you replicate this on gvim? Change the settings on the nvidia-settings. Did you try this with a different kernel? Which kernel are you using? Can you type a sentence so that we can see what the fonts look like? I would make a bug report while you are experimenting with different settings. -- Cheers!

Option "UseEdidDpi" "monitor" (the new graphics card used a new monitor name, but the monitor is the same) restarted X11 (rcxdm restart: "xdm" is SDDM) and then I had the problems with Konsole. Today I do not see this problem. So hopefully the PC had a "self-healing effect". Thanks for all the tips.

It's good to hear that you're able to resolve your problem. OpenSUSE does have a self-healing effect ;-) The next kernel will be 4.14x so that should help with support with your graphics card. I'm using a GeForce 750 Ti card and it's working really well. -- Cheers!

Hi Roman, Could you be more specific about changes in kernel 4.14 and nvidia? thanks, m. On piatok, 17. novembra 2017 23:15:02 CET Roman Bysh wrote:

Yes. Kernel 4.14x will include the libelf-devel dependency so that users will not be shocked should the kernel not compile the Nvidia module. I know we were surprised these last few days. -- Cheers!
