[opensuse-kde] Screen corruption Leap 42.2, plasma 5.8
Hi All, Need some help try to solve some screen corruption issue with Leap 42.2 and plasmashell --version = plasmashell 5.8.3 NVidia - 375.26-19.1 In my account the clock with starts to lose digits after a day or two. Also I have a weather widget installed. On that the temperature display will go away. In my wife's account (or any account I switch to) the clock disappears entirely, again after a day or two. I have tried brand new accounts with the same results. I can get the missing digits back by resizing the taskbar, but after awhile, the digits go away again. I have tried multiple versions of the NVidia driver. I can't really use the Nouveau driver as it deadlocks on me every couple of days. I've different kinds of compositor settings, turning compositor off. I've tried different themes, nothing seems to make a difference. I don't see anything in Xorg logs or xsession-errors. https://paste.opensuse.org/56212379 Tips, pointers, suggestions are all welcome!

There's another driver you can try. Easiest way to use it is to uninstall xf86-video-nouveau, and eradicate the proprietary driver and all its remnants. The result should be automatic use of the modesetting driver integral to the server. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

That doesn't help when nouveau crash the kernel module :-) -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org

What does "nouveau crash the kernel module" mean? Modesetting only works if the Xorg nouveau driver is blocked or uninstalled or your gfxcard's driver is controlled via /etc/X11/xorg_pci_ids/. Did you find or file an openSUSE or upstream bug about it? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Never found anything useful in my logs when the nouveau locked up. Just got "nouveau gpu lockup switching to software fbcon" and couldn't do anything. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org

lsmod | grep nouveau give you nouveau and zypper ll give you all the xf86- video

Upstream are aware that they still don't support my chipset correctly yet. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
Would be nice that people asking for help with video trouble would for the record provide more basic information about their hardware than simply saying ATI, Intel, Nouveau or NVidia, e.g.: # lspci -nnk | grep -A5 VGA # inxi -c0 -G -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
