KDE 5: desktop icon labels do not render

I have had a small problem with KDE Plasma 5 since about version 5.4. I am not sure why it does this, and it stays this way almost all the time. When the labels to render correctly, it is usually right after booting. I am using a Dell Precision M2400 laptop with the nvidia-340xx drivers. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a simple solution?

To be honest, I don't remember if I did because I switched computers. In a few weeks, I'll be reconfiguring the old machine (again), and I'll see if I encounter the problem.

Re: KDE 5: desktop icon labels do not render

Many versions of the kernel, the graphics stack and KDE have passed. You might see similar symptoms but the cause has a good potential of being different than a year ago. Please don't necrobump, start a new thread and link back to this one if you feel that it is relevant. Make sure to include logs and other relevant information.

Closing

Decided against it since the OP has answered again, however make sure to read those links, and provide some more information on your setup in particular if you are using xf86-video-intel, try without that.
