Hi there, I've got these really odd issue where certain windows will cause random lines like the one in the screenshot appear on my screen. They will often flicker a bit and will dissapear if I hover my mouse over them. The lines will display what is beneath the window itself. These occour quite frequently and are frankly getting quite annoying to deal with.

Is this a known issue with KDE right now? It does not happen while using Gnome on the same machine + screen. If it matters I am running CachyOS.

If there is anythign I can do to fix this then I'd greatly appriciate some pointers!

Need more info:

  • GPU
  • Compositor being used
  • Resolution and refresh settings
  • What cable is your monitor using
  • Does your monitor status info match your desktop settings (check monitor info menu for refresh rate and resolution)
  • Does it happen in all resolutions, or just specific ones?
