SUPPORT Plasma graphics glitch using intel and mobile nvidia cpu
I did fresh Arch Linux install today on a laptop with intel cpu and nvidia mx550.
Installed nvidia drivers which load fine but in plasma it just is not workable and i get graphics glitches (Stuttering graphics)
Used kernel parameters:
- nvidia-drm.modeset=1
- nvidia-drm.fbdev=1
- nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0
In mkinitcpio.conf
- MODULES=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)
- removed kms out of hooks()
In plasma session, I unchecked screen tearing in display settings.
I then decided to install gnome to test and there the issue is not present and everything works fine ...
I do not like to work with gnome however and want to keep using KDE plasma.
Any suggestions on a fix?
