(also i noticed screenshots of windows look more greyish/washed out then they are on my screen, idk why though this was also with old better blur might be forum software though)

technically i can live being a bit edgy on the left side, its just weird :slightly_smiling_face:

Sorry about that, I failed to update all the urls in the README.md when I forked taj-nyā€™s repo. Iā€™ve fixed that up just now. I also donā€™t know why it was asking for a password :man_shrugging:

Iā€™ll also note that Iā€™ve spent most of my time hacking on the shaders. This is where Iā€™m at at the moment:

Nice glassy effect you created there, @4v3ngR ā€” kudos!
kwin-effects-glass

And welcome to the forum, @4v3ngR! :enos_flag:

omg thank you, it was ā€œblur all except matchingā€, now it works
tysm :purple_heart:

This is a weird one because Iā€™m on displayport, and it doesnā€™t freeze per se, - if I turn my monitor off and back on again, the screen wakes and returns, but hasnā€™t locked, which is interesting.

Edit : Okay, left for longer, and yes the display dimmed and then froze. But again, turning off the monitor and back on again, got it to the lock screen. Not the end of the world until a fix can come through.

Hey all good :slight_smile: Thanks for your work on the project. Installed and running here. :victory_hand:

89

That looks great! Nice work.

I saw people with laptops saying closing and reopening the lid unfreezes so that makes sense. Iā€™ve just disabled power saving for now.

After 510810, 508402 and now 513151 I think I will update less frequently as lately itā€™s getting less and less appealing to do so. Edit: not hating on KDE they fix problems fast. I just need a better balance and that is on me.

91

Arch has updated its kwin package to ā€œrevert commit causing freezesā€:

Itā€™s time to yay!

92

You knowā€¦in response to this thread, I looked up that kde bug only 15 minutes ago..and it wasnā€™t labeled fixed yet :wink:

93

Still showing as Assigned, but with reports that the updated Arch build has fixed the problem.

94

Yeah, I walked away to eat something and it successfully did NOT lock up :wink:

95

Thereā€™s now kwin 6.5.4-3 available - ā€œBackport upstream fix for freezesā€.
