Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

Some time launching applications seeing artifacts of glitches.

How to reproduce

After the discord announcement of gpu

considerable gpu performance hit from a commit introduced in v0.33.0 has been fixed in git. i updated hyprland-git.

Now launching apps like firefox sometime show glitches before rendering it is so fast that m failing to take screenshot. will attach if got any.

Crash reports, logs, images, videos

No response

My bad gang, I tested on latest git first and it didn't fix, so assumed it was like previous instructions. :)

[vaxerski]

what you mean didnt fix it? Or are you incapable of reading the patch is only meant for ON-SCREEN flicker and NOT screencopy??

[vaxerski]

d62e7a5125c551fe8a94e076e64d42b702d923b1 and e793f10b8bd1685a2e2bbd7cc90063f12bf380c4 fix both issues. Fix for screencopy fucking sucks but I give up writing a better one after 2 or so hours.

[Fxzzi]

Thanks for fixing the issues vax, take your time on the better fix, at least it's working fine now :)

[vaxerski]

chatted with wayland bois and I dont think the better fix is worth it due to.... wheyland

anyways closing fuck you all and I'll see you next time

[rurigk]

Both of them works for me

updated from AUR i face glitches sometime in foot terminal is there someother way to build to get fixed or the issue is there ?

[niksingh710]

here after rebuild from aur facing this on foot till only for now.

[Fxzzi]

hello again vax. Seems your fixes may have solved in some cases but I seem to be experiencing the issue(s) still on my Thinkpad L14 (AMD CPU and iGPU)

Anything you need me to test? Once again sorry for the trouble

[vaxerski]

there are two issues here and I want you to not mix those up.

One is visible on-screen, one is only visible on recordings. Which are you talking about

for me i am talking about visible on screen. it happens on foot terminal mostly. or sometimes when i launch firefox.

and at recording part. if I try to take screenshot when the screen is glitching https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/4744#issuecomment-1953563728 happens.

the glitch on the screen less compare to what comes in screenshot.

Yep, I understand. No issues afaik on screen. Issues with screencopy, aka OBS and Grim.

[vaxerski]

@niksingh710 your issue looks more like your gpu drivers crying than anything else. Nvidia?

@Fxzzi can you fiddle with your config on your laptop and see if any options solve the problem?

[Fxzzi]

@Fxzzi can you fiddle with your config on your laptop and see if any options solve the problem?

For sure, I'll have a look for you when I can. I assume it'll just be something in Hyprland config?

For ref, here are all of my configs https://gitlab.com/fazzi/dotfiles

[vaxerski]

yeah, try stuff like making your monitors at 0x0, changing res, maybe fiddle with rendering-related options

This is my systeminfo from hyprland.

I have intel i7 10 gen cpu and Amd GPU (AMD Radeon 530 Series)

Have tested this on the previous build and I don't face an issue, so I don't think should be a driver

[niksingh710]

yesterday i tried the latest commit in one of my friends laptop he is having nvidia 1650 for him everything was working fine. tears if nvidia_tear variable is false but the fps is 60 and if nvidia_tear is true then no tear but fps is 30. (on kde wayland too he get's 30 fps on monitor screen)

[Fxzzi]

yeah, try stuff like making your monitors at 0x0, changing res, maybe fiddle with rendering-related options

after fiddling a bit, it seems having waybar running and visible seems to break the screenshots. Here is my testing:

Minimal config:

no issues with screenshots or video recording on this minimal config

Now for my config: https://gitlab.com/fazzi/dotfiles/-/raw/hyprland-laptop/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf

Issue with screenshots:

However, strangely, screen recording seems fine:

Killing waybar and screenshots seem fixed from what I can tell:

I tested whether or not it was some issue with the waybar reserved area, however doesn't seem like it, as adding monitor = eDP-1,addreserved,40,0,0,0 with waybar killed and screenshots are still good

seems to be le fixed :)

screen copy wasn't an issue for me updated to latest commit sometimes still i see artifacts on foot terminal After updating to latest git commit my laptop screen had abit of artifact but as cursor went their it cleaned up.

Logs

aaaah i literaly thought till date that logs are enabled by default 💢

[vaxerski]

this is the source most likely, if you don't have tearing enabled explicitly then this signifies a driver issue I believe. I don't think these should fail.

[niksingh710]

@vaxerski in my observation if monitor is connected and then hyprland is launched the it's ok just glitches are there. but if i disconnect monitor and then reconnect it to running hyprland instance everything freezes. and then reboot is the only option.

[alba4k]

I experienced this too

when disconnecting my laptop from the external monitors, I have to use REISUB

[niksingh710]

Could be totally unrelated. But earlier when I used to reboot my system was kept on ondemand but now when I reboot it is on schedutil

[alba4k]

@vaxerski I'm fairly sure this should be reopened.

OBS Screen Recordings are fine now, sure, but I still do fairly often see weird graphical glitches appear on screen, usually after opening an app using rofi, before its window appears, or randomly on a monitor after flameshot closes, stuff like that. Looks like the exact same thing this issue was opened for

It is hard to record, as they are usually present for a very short time. But those glitches usually consist in some formation of randomly placed randomly colored pixels in a selected area (usually rectangles, about ~40% of pixels appear glitched)

I highly doubt that all of our gpu drivers decided do die all of a sudden, especially since the glitches seem to appear in specific situations.

[alba4k]

Managed to replicate it pretty consistently.

https://quickshare.samsungcloud.com/bRdRajgOMG1E

This is what this issue looks like, most of the time (similar glitches sometimes appear in smaller parts of the screen). It shows part of the window that was previously open, even though it might not even exist anymore. Also, as can be seen from this video, the opening time of firefox is a lot longer when the glitch appears (it should always be nearly instantaneous).

Here are some better videos (screen recordings, instead of recorded using a phone):

Uncompressed video, yeah, its imgur, sorry

[vaxerski]

is this nvidia

[alba4k]

Nope, intel

[vaxerski]

open a different issue then, as this one is fixed.

[alba4k]

I guess the original issue was never fixed then, as @niksingh710 isn't using nvidia either.

But sure, I can open a different one

[vaxerski]

this issue has been fixed.

[Fxzzi]

I guess the original issue was never fixed then

I tried with both AMD and Nvidia, vaxrys' fixes fixed it on both
