Hello @ksiezak and thank you for the issue.
The new version of wpaperd uses openGL ES to render the image and I think it might be due to a version mismatch. Can you please run the following command and share its result?
$ glxinfo | grep "OpenGL ES profile version"
Sure @danyspin97
$ glxinfo | grep "OpenGL ES profile version"
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 24.0.6-arch1.2.1
On the another computer, I have version 3.2 of OpenGL ES, and it is working fine.
Oh, I see, then it's the openGL ES version 3.2 used by wpaperd that is not supported. Let's try to use openGL ES 3.0 instead. I'll add a commit asap with this change.
Apologies for the delay but I am working on having many transitions from https://gl-transitions.com/ and lowering the GLES version might cause some issues, so I am waiting until that is ready to check what might not work.
I changed wallpaper daemon to another software on that old laptop so it is no longer issue for me. If it would be burden to downgrade that GLES it can stay in current version.
I am continuing to use wpaperd on more modern PC. It is great software and lack of supporting very old hardware is understandable.
As in title.
Wpaperd version: 1.0.1 installed from AUR wpaperd package. I also tested wpaperd-git with the same result. OS: Arch Linux with ALHP x86-64-v2 repo Compositor: Hyprland 0.39.1 HW: Old Samsung RC520 laptop with dual Intel + Nvidia graphics. Only Intel is used in Hyprland but nvidia 390 module is loaded into the kernel.
It was working previously, but I don't know which version broke it for me.
