Screen Redrawing Issues

[Sterophonick]

When running gamescope with some games, the window doesn't redraw itself until a key is pressed or the mouse is moved. The game ULTRAKILL is the worst offender that I have found so far. Other games have little minor related issues such as the Steam overlay freezing until the mouse is moved or it happening when games first boot.

Also happening in Doom 2016. mesa 21.1.8, kernel 5.14.9, renoir

Might be happening with the map in GTFO as well if anyone other than me can reproduce (I don't trust my Frankenstein's Debian very well).

Is this still happening now that https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/pull/296 is merged?

just updated from 3.9.5 to https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/commit/78a2496386d37d759ac09f0a3192d726f745c687 and notice no difference. the games i tested were Halo MCC and Thronebreaker, which both have the issue of not drawing the screen until mouse or keyboard input at startup, in some situations during the game, and when the steam big picture overlay is triggered.

I have the same issue. But i have the issue with my steam games as long as steam overlay is enabled. Disabling the steam overlay fixes it for the games i tested (Dirt 5, CNC Remaster, Need for speed payback, Star wars jfo).

i'm currently still running 3.9.5 and the problem seems to have solved itself for me. i suspect it's something that got updated here: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/stable-update-2021-12-10-kernels-systemd-libreoffice-plasma-browser-thunderbird/94025 my first suspect is plasma being upgraded. is anyone in this thread not running plasma?

I have the same issue. But i have the issue with my steam games as long as steam overlay is enabled. Disabling the steam overlay fixes it for the games i tested (Dirt 5, CNC Remaster, Need for speed payback, Star wars jfo).

come to think of it, i just had a steam beta client update, that also might have fixed it...

Interesting indeed. I am also using plasma, i did not change the gamescope version and the issue is gone here too. But i change the radv versions in between a lot, maybe it is related to that , no idea.

Old and stale. Closing
