Graphical issues with some applications after an update

Ask Fedora

Hello folks. As you can read in the title above, some applications are not running very well. FreeCAD and Vivaldi browser, to be more exact. Other programs in my system are working correctly. Include graphical programs, like LibreOffice Draw, Blender, and others.

I tried the rollback command to back to a previous state but unsuccessfully.

See the exit…

Thanks for your attention.

Often you cannot rollback or downgrade Fedora because the old RPMs do not stay around for very long.

You have tags AMDGPU and NVIDIA which is it?

Are you using the RPM fusion nvidia drivers?
If NVIDIA did you wait until the new nvidia drivers have been built and installed before rebooting?
You may be running with the nouveau driver not the RPM fusion drivers.

Hello Scott. I’m using an AMD GPU with open-source drives from original Fedora repositories.

Ok you can ignore the stuff about NVidia as you are have AMD hardware.

What is the graphic issue that you see?

In the web browser, some images and colors that compose the page don’t load properly. Sometimes that made some artifacts instead of a clean image.
And, the FreeCAD application doesn’t open. Or, when it occurs, stay open for a few seconds.

Try running freecad from a terminal and look at its output.
There is possibly going to be error messages that may help debug things.

Which browser? What web page URL? Please that info so others can try to reproduce the problem.
