Bug ID: 461565
Summary: kwin_wayland doesn't appear to display anything on a
simpledrm device
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: platform-drm
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: bluescreenaven...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It appears that kwin doesn't draw anything to the screen on simpledrm anymore,
I am not sure when this started, but this build of kwin was built on 2022-11-03
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ensure you are using simpledrm, if your kernel was built with it enabled,
you can actually use it with the nomodeset option. It could also be a module
you need to load, although distros that enable it don't seem to be enabling it
as a module.
2. start `kwin_xwayland --xwayland xterm`
3. Observe the blank screen
OBSERVED RESULT
exporting QT_LOGGING_RULES=*=true and then running kwin, and then grepping
`drm` in the log output
