Public bug reported: 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: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1967659 Title: Qt apps broken on nVidia/Wayland (Event thread blocked) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtwayland-opensource-src/+bug/1967659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
