You have been subscribed to a public bug by Rik Mills (rikmills): Qt apps (particularly those using QtQuick) — including the KDE Plasma desktop — are broken on nVidia/Wayland systems since the nVidia egl- wayland library was updated to 1.1.8.
https://github.com/NVIDIA/egl-wayland/issues/40 The fix for this has landed in upstream Qt: https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtwayland/+/301712 But backports from upstream Qt are heavily delayed to non-commercial users. The KDE project has backported the fix to their branch, and there is a Merge Request available in debian: https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/qt/qtwayland/-/merge_requests/5 Without this fix, KDE Plasma is totally unusable under Wayland, and some Qt applications will likely break under Gnome, too, which could be a problem if nVidia/Wayland will be the default for Gnome in 22.04. Most other distros have either backported this fixed, or switched to packaging the KDE-maintained branch of QtWayland, which contains it. ** Affects: qtwayland-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: qtwayland-opensource-src (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- Qt apps broken on nVidia/Wayland (Event thread blocked) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1967659 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
