After yesterday’s system update, I’ve rebooted the system and some windows become black (like skype, slack, vlc etc). The window looks like a black square.
My system info:
OS: Fedora 35
Kernel: 5.16.16-200.fc35.x86_64
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060
These are all flatpak apps, right? I’ve seen this on my previous F35 setup (I even filed a bug), but for some reason it is working now for me (GTX 1650) even on X11 with the latest Nvidia driver…
If you run them on the command line does the output show any error?
Mmmh… those EGL initialization errors seem suspicious, I’d try to take a deeper look into it. I did a quick search and found a couple of resources, maybe they are helpful. Some common problems that seem to be related is the use of Nvidia Prime, don’t know if that’s your case (I’d guess not since you are not on a notebook)
BTW I also ran Sporify from the terminal and these errors don’t appear here.
If you want you can post here your Xorg.conf, maybe there’s a clue there.
Ugh, and this topic is tagged #wayland — I assume that’s an auto-tag, and stems from the brief mention in the OP that this isn’t a problem under Wayland.
…Whatever’s doing the auto-tagging here should probably cut it out, because it clearly isn’t very good at distinguishing mentions of actual topics from non-topic keywords that just happen to appear in posts.
Hi @lensky84 , I second what @ferdnyc asked, please be more specific about what you’ve done. This way you can hopefully be more helpful for others that end up here with the same problem you had
You registered yesterday. The system still makes you restrictions because you are new. After a week or so you should be able to go thru all this again and make the necessary changes. This is a security feature from the Software here to avoid spammers.
No need to edit a past comment, just add another one at the end of this thread detailing what you have done – and perhaps mark this new one as the solution. This will provide an immediate jumping point for anyone seeking a solution.
