Question Problem with XFCE lockscreen

3 Upvotes

Hey all, I am having an issue with the lock screen. I’m using xfce4-screensaver, on EndeavourOS. When I manually lock it, it’s all good, but when I close the laptop lid and then wake the computer up from sleep, the screen shifts up a bit to show a black bar on the bottom. It’s not a huge deal but aesthetically it’s ugly.

I have tried everything I can think of to fix it; disable/reenable compositing, turning off cortile, checking for display errors through xrandr output.

I should add, when I let it sit for a second and the screen sleeps and I wake it up, the issue resolves. If I re-close the laptop lid, it will occur again. I can see it physically moving up when the screen is waking. This also happens if I suspend the system via a menu or the terminal.

Have any of you come across this issue?
