Hi, I'm currently using Debian Buster with the latest updates on a computer equipped with a nvidia graphic card (GeForce 9600M GT) using latest legacy nvidia proprietary drivers (340.107).
The labels of plasma desktop icons in folder-view mode are always corrupted after resume from suspend to memory or hibernation to disk. This bug has been already reported in the KDE Bugtracking System as "closed upstream" [0][1] but in my current hardware configuration it is still there (I've opened a bug report [2] with the details about graphic card driver). According to [1], the nvidia proprietary driver should expose a property called GL_NV_robustness_video_memory_purge and the recognition of this property seems has been be implemented in the latest QT version after bugs reports [0][1]. Unfortunately, the current legacy nvidia driver for GeForce 9600M GT (version 340.107) seems not to implement this property, as shown by the glxinfo command in my computer. Therefore, I suppose that this bug will be not solved neither upstream (kde/qt) nor by the nvidia developers. I would like to implement a workaround to redraw plasma-shell desktop icons in folder-view mode. I don't want to force-restart plasmashell after every resume from suspend/hibernate as suggested in [3], because it takes time for the restart and the plasmashell rendering is not always correct. Therefore, I would like to use, for example, a ECMA script to send a message by dbus to plasmashell to redraw its contents. I've read KDE documentation about Plasma Desktop Scripting [4], but I wasn't able to figure out how to do it as a ECMA script and your help would be appreciated.
