Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Michal Odehnal 2023-02-08 10:19:30 UTC
Created attachment 1942840 [details]
reproducer

Description of problem:
In certain background there is an black frame around clock and user and also over the Red Hat logo at the bottom left of the screen. It does not show at first but when Escaping over and over again it shows and can disappear when System menu is focused.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-extension-background-logo-40.0~rc-4.el9.noarch
gnome-shell-40.10-8.el9.x86_64
gnome-shell-40.10-9.el9.x86_64
gdm-40.1-21.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have the very first Red Hat background set from gnome-control-center
2. Lock the screen.
3. Press Escape key a few times to show the black frame.

Actual results:
Black frame around the clock, user and around Red Hat logo.

Expected results:
No black frame.

Additional info:
This happens only with the very first background from gnome-control-center the others are fine. The Red Hat logo does not exactly have a black frame but in higher brightness I can see smudged rectangle in place where the logo is located. It seems like the issue can be with logos or backgrounds itself instead of gdm or gnome-shell but I filed it under gdm just in case. Switch as needed please.

Bottom right.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2023-02-08 11:14:20 UTC
i'm guessing it's a gnome-shell bug of some sort with blurring

Comment 3 Michal Odehnal 2023-08-23 13:56:53 UTC
Can still be reproduced in 9.3
