Description of problem:

Synergy GUI window is blacked out on RHEL 8.6 kernel-4.18.0-372.9.1.el8.x86_64

The synergy application performs its KVM tasks properly.  However, no settings can be seen or changed because the application window is blacked out.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

synergy-1.14.3.5-1.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:

The synergy GUI window is blacked out when I boot with RHEL 8.6 kernel-4.18.0-372.9.1.el8.x86_64 every time I launch the application.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot RHEL 8.6 kernel-4.18.0-372.9.1.el8.x86_64
2. Launch synergy application.
3. Wait for the black GUI window to appear.

Actual results:

Black GUI window appears.

Expected results:

Normal GUI window appears.

Additional info:

The synergy-1.14.3.5-1.el8.x86_64 application GUI is presented normally with the previous RHEL 8.6 kernel-4.18.0-348.23.1.el8_5.x86_64

Please be advised the first reference to RHEL 8.5 in the description is incorrect.  It should read RHEL 8.6.  Apologies...

I corrected the above error in the description after discovering the edit button.  Sorry for the trouble.  This is my first bugzilla bug report in the history of the universe.

Are you able to reproduce this in Synergy 1.15? That version was recently released.
