Bug ID: 440464
Summary: Screen rotation broken on wayland
Product: kwin
Version: 5.22.4
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: log4...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I am unable to rotate the screen under a wayland session. The screen will
always stay in non-rotated mode, regardless of which rotation I select.
Sometimes, the desktop will crash and restart upon applying the setting.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open display settings and under manual orientation pick 90° clockwise,
counter clockwise or upside down.
2. Click Apply.
OBSERVED RESULT
The screen either doesn't rotate, or desktop crashes, blinking to text mode
before reloading.
EXPECTED RESULT
The screen is rotated to selected setting.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Neon 5.22 (User Edition)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.84.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- The system is running on nvidia proprietary driver, version 470.
- I have two displays connected and the behavior is the same on first and
second one, as well as when disabling one.
- I have found reports of similar issues on KDE forums in regards to Plasma
4.21 (https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=111&t=170833). Note that a similar
bug was supposedly fixed in 1.19, so this could be a regression
(https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=389665).
