Bug ID: 385324 Summary: kwin: Desktop effects were restarted due to a graphics reset Product: kwin Version: 5.10.5 Platform: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: m4rkus...@web.de Target Milestone: --- frameworks 5.38.0 plasma 5.10.5 apps 17.08.1 qt 5.9.1 nvidia driver 384.90 kernel 4.13.4 Sometimes when starting konqueror I get the error message "Desktop effects were restarted due to a graphics reset" from kwin and the desktop effects are disabled. I am unable to enable them again (Ctrl+Alt+F12). Restarting kwin brings the effects back. Starting kwin from console with debugging and triggering this bug I get: 17-10-03 15:28.07: kwin_core: A graphics reset attributable to the current GL context occurred. 17-10-03 15:28.07: kwin_core: Attempting to reset compositing. 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_core: Initializing OpenGL compositing 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_platform_x11_standalone: Choosing GLXFBConfig 0xb5 X visual 0x2b depth 24 RGBA 8:8:8:0 ZS 0:0 17-10-03 15:28.08: OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation 17-10-03 15:28.08: OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTX 750 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 17-10-03 15:28.08: OpenGL version string: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 384.90 17-10-03 15:28.08: OpenGL shading language version string: 4.50 NVIDIA 17-10-03 15:28.08: Driver: NVIDIA 17-10-03 15:28.08: Driver version: 384.90 17-10-03 15:28.08: GPU class: Unknown 17-10-03 15:28.08: OpenGL version: 4.5 17-10-03 15:28.08: GLSL version: 4.50 17-10-03 15:28.08: X server version: 1.19.3 17-10-03 15:28.08: Linux kernel version: 4.13.4 17-10-03 15:28.08: Requires strict binding: no 17-10-03 15:28.08: GLSL shaders: yes 17-10-03 15:28.08: Texture NPOT support: yes 17-10-03 15:28.08: Virtual Machine: no 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_platform_x11_standalone: Direct rendering: true 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_core: Initializing fences for synchronization with the X command stream 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_core: OpenGL 2 compositing setup failed 17-10-03 15:28.08: kwin_core: Failed to initialize compositing, compositing disabled At the same time (15:28:07) I also get this in dmesg: NVRM: Xid (PCI:0000:01:00): 31, Ch 00000018, engmask 00000101, intr 10000000 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
