Hi,
I'm sorry.
Have you applied the latest updates? I was having similar issues (black rectangles all over the place; mouse/keyboard no issues though) until I did the update 2 days ago. All seems back the way it should be now.
All updates were applied, yes. This is Leap 15.5. And I normally reboot after updates, or relogin, till "zypper ps" shows clear.
I just got now something related to xfce4 panel and google chrome, so applied and rebooted, to make sure no KDE services were lingering (XFCE was showing messages in the middle of the display, instead of bottom right. Something was not right).
The desktop just did a black rectangle when trying to ctrl-alt-tab to another window, then it locked. I should have recognized it and closed the session orderly right then. It had been working perfectly for days, but then it locked. I had to kill the session, so applications with open files were killed, lost data.
And this has happened twice.
I interpret this to mean that every few days the session will lock and crash. Not acceptable.
I am on tumbleweed and kde works fine for me, since long time no problem. it could be related to the gpu acceleration, i remember i switched off someting (i also do not need all this fancy stuff on my desktop) systemsettings display and monitor composer -> disable the "enable on startup" -> enable "allow applications to block composing" at the moment i am wondering a little bit, i remember here where before also some settings for the composer, opengl or what ever i liked to use. i do not know where these settings now are. (here its x11 and kde tumbleweed on a amd gpu) in internet i see from 2020 soemting with more settings, if somebody has a idee where these settings now are would be nice. simoN -- www.becherer.de
