Description of problem: After updating Fedora 39 to 40 some rendering is broken. For example yelp launches with many errors and shows no content. This is under Xfce. Removing mesa-vulkan-drivers-24.0.0-2.fc40.x86_6 however has fixed the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mesa-24.0.0-2.fc40 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Problem was after upgrade from Fedora 39 to 40 on multiple platforms. 2. 3. Actual results: On multiple systems with varying video hardware (mix of NVIDIA and Intel) after upgrading 39 to 40 yelp (when launched from the command line) would launch with errors and show no content. When launched indirectly from another application (like Atril for example) yelp would open with no content. Searching the web for a solution suggested this sort of issue has happened previously and mesa was the underlying cause. As an experiment I removed the vulkan drivers and it fixed the problem. Additional info: A thread discussing the issue in greater detail exists on the Fedora Test lists here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/VWIEYVFIYZJNA3N4JFLQNRESXGLJ5HVD/ Hardware profile of systems on which this problem was observed: Dell Precision T5610 2 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2603 v2 @ 1.80GHz (8 cores total) NVIDIA Corporation GK104 [GeForce GTX 760] (rev a1) Intel NUC i7 NUC11PAH 1 x 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz Intel Corporation TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] (rev 01) Note also this same problem happened on my native Rawhide box, and removing the vulkan drives fixed the problem there also. The hardware profile of that system is as follows: Dell Optiplex 3040 1 x 6th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-6100T CPU @ 3.20GHz Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06) I have not observed this problem [yet] on Fedora 39 with mesa-23.3.6-1.fc39.
I am seeing the same issues. Removing mesa-vulkan-drivers does not fix it, but changes things from NOT rendering to rendering, though I still can't interact with them. I've only upgraded to 40 on 2 systems so far and both show the same issues. 1. NVIDIA GTX 1060 3G 2. Alder Lake Iris Xe Everything previously worked flawlessly on several versions of Fedora over the years up to 39.
Are you also running Xfce, Jay?
No. I was for a very long time ... switched to KDE/Plasma a couple years ago. Still running X11 as well, despite the upgrade process "forgetting" to upgrade the required packages and forcing me to manually install them. :-)
It didn't forget, that was entirely intentional. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/KDE_Plasma_6 It seems worrying that you saw this on two systems with different graphics cards, but...on the other hand, I don't think I've seen it reported by anyone else yet. So, bit weird, really. Does Wayland work, if you try it?
I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt that a user's preferred protocol wouldn't purposely be replaced with something that doesn't work. :-) On both systems, I did try Wayland despite the fact that it was incapable of using the full resolution of the attached displays. For example on the Intel XE GPU, the display was limited to 1024x768 in the upper left corner of a 1920x1080 screen. The window rendered slightly differently, but was still unusable and wouldn't accept interaction.
Huh. Well...that's weird. Hard to say what might be going on without more details, though. I'm not really sure it's the same issue as Ian, or it may be the issue Ian saw plus something else causing lack of interaction. It might help to see the journal logs, at least... (FWIW, my other laptop is an Alder Lake - Dell XPS 13 9315 - and I haven't seen any of the issues described in this bug on it, so it's a bit of a head scratcher).
I installed yelp and it works fine, so it's a different issue. I don't want to hijack this bug report; I'll open my own if I can't figure it out.
