I'm getting some wacky graphical errors on Kitty, Vscode, and notable. It happens seemingly at random and I am still unsure how to reproduce it. My cursor disappears when hovering and I get that classic 'Windows freeze error' look if I drag other windows around in front of it.
Image of Kitty not rendering correctly. You can see that the dmenu I open to screenshot stays visible because of the error...

I am posting this on the Arch forums because I think it has to do with some GPU rendering errors rather than Kitty or Vscode errors for a couple reasons:
- if I have multiple instances of Kitty open they all freeze at the same
- the tasks that might be running on them still run, seeming that they are only graphically frozen
- Kitty uses GPU rendering
Vscode acts a bit differently. It restarts a couple seconds after freeze and I'm able to keep working, but the integrated terminal output text is completely invisible. I can still type commands (and can see my typed text) but I won't see what they say.

kitty --debug-gl and kitty --debug-rendering both output "GL version string: '4.6 (Core Profile) version: 4.6" and nothing else, even when the Kitty terminal started with --debug-rendering freezes. Also, if I start kitty with `prime-run kitty`, the error still happens. Other terminal emulators are fine. That is, I've been using urxvt for the past day with no problems (beside that of vscode still freezing)

Please don't embed huge images directly.
Remove xf86-video-intel and configurations for it if installed and retry.

I haven't had any problems since removing xf86-video-intel. I'll mark as solved for now.
