No. I noticed it immediately. However, since most of the time fixes come
within
a few days, I did not report the bug at the time, thinking I wasn't the
only one
with that desktop behavior.

I'm not "blaming" libdrm in a criticizing way :) It's just that it was the
ONLY
updated package at that time that could have caused the bug to appear since
I
doubt libreoffice could be the one that has an impact (see the previous
attachment
with the upgraded packages that day)... As a developper myself (bare-metal,
kernel,
CLI, QT) for the industry, I'm fully aware that there can be bugs at
several levels.

No in mine, I'm afraid. I tried to do that but apt do not want me to. When
I simulate
the downgrade here is what it gives:
$ cat libdrm2-packages-versions
libdrm-nouveau2=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
libdrm-amdgpu1=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
libdrm2=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
libdrm-intel1=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
libdrm-radeon1=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
libdrm-common=2.4.95-1~18.04.1
$ sudo apt-get -s install $(cat libdrm2-packages-versions)

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnuplot : Depends: gnuplot-qt but it is not going to be installed or

E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by
held packages.
Trying to upgrade them 1 by 1 gives the results found in this post attached
file. I
did not go further in downgrading in the fear of having inconsistencies
between
packages versions.

Title:
No more desktop effects since libdrm upgrade in Bionic
Status in libdrm package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hello.
I upgraded my system on 2019-05-09 and since then desktop effects do not work
anymore. It installed
a new libdrm stack :

I have an ATI Radeon that was working fine with KDE until then. I waited to
see if someone had realized it before creating a bug report... It really is
annoying : no more transparency, no
more auto-hide of windows : my workflow is strongly impacted.
