Package: kwin-x11
Version: 4:5.14.5-1+b1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am following debian unstable, desktop X11/sddm/kde on a Lenovo laptop T460p.
The nvidia graphics on the laptop is disabled in favor of the chipset graphics
(Intel).
After the last upgrade (which was from testing to stable on the 25th October),
I am experiencing a mostly unusable desktop. The login screen (sddm) comes up
as expected,
but right after login I get flickering black rectangles on the screen, which
may
cover up to 90% of its area. Windows mostly remain black or their content
suddenly
becomes visible he task bar remains black and I see other residuals of the kde
splash
screen where windows should be drawn or the background wallpaper be
restored. Swithing to a VT; all seems ok, kwin, the desktop and applications
are
running.
So far, my only clue as to what may be going on is a workaroud: if I start a
terminal
via keyboard shortcut and issue blindly
DRI_PRIME=1 kwin_x11 --replace
then afterwards things behave mostly normally (Sometimes window contaent is
still
not correctly updated). I just picked this line up from older bug reports
against kwin on the net without understanding what it does.
This is the output of kwin following this command in the hope that it helps
