I tried to get Wayland working with KDE and the Nvidia driver on Debian 12. Not seen this kind of thing in many years.
@barnoid it's so pretty
@barnoid yeah it just Does this sometimes on a portion of one of my monitors, no idea why (i'm using intel integrated graphics!!)
@barnoid This could be either NVIDIA's or KDE's fault.
Compositing display managers repaint the entire desktop. To avoid tearing, they double-buffer the entire display. What you're seeing is the window being repainted, but the background "wallpaper" isn't being repainted at all, leaving the trail behind.
This could be because NVIDIA is still coming up to speed on Wayland support, or because KDE didn't link in the wallpaper layer correctly.
@barnoid how can I enable that on purpose?
@barnoid
Congratulations on completing Solitaire.
@barnoid it's beautiful
@barnoid that's pretty awesome :o
@barnoid I think you have just won a freecell game.
@barnoid I need this as a feature!
@barnoid wow, I wish my computer did that. Beautiful.
I love how the motion animation just continues. It's like an infinite chain
@barnoid Looks kinda sick. Leave it out as a """theme"""
@barnoid@mastodon.me.uk it's weirdly beautiful
@barnoid @skerit
This really brings back then #windowsxp days when I would paint the screen with a multiplying window. This is a feature and not a bug.
@barnoid for me, KDE + Nvidia + Wayland leads to 100% cpu usage across all cores , and a minute between mouse click and response on-screen.
@barnoid quick put a beat to it and you are immediately part of the demo scene!
@barnoid I've never seen this happen at such a high fps though, tech really has advanced
@barnoid flip model went rong
@barnoid that is strangely beautiful. Useless, but beautiful.
