Re: [Solved] Compton doesn't take effect after kernel update.

xorg log, glxinfo & journal (or run compton from an interactive shell)

To take a guess, pass "amdgpu.dc=0" to the kernel paramters.

Thank you for the good suggestions disabling "amdgpu.dc" does the job and Compton now works as I want ,but I am trying not to disable amdgpu.dc because it prevent my laptop from waking up after suspend correctly any idea or I need to open new Topic for  that.
