Re: Invisible or ghosting windows when using Plasma X11 session
No. Logging in with a fresh user works.

Re: Invisible or ghosting windows when using Plasma X11 session
Move away the ~/.config/kwinrc of your original user.

Moved away ~/.config/{kwinrc,kdeglobals,plasmarc,plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc} and that doesn't work too.

Re: Invisible or ghosting windows when using Plasma X11 session
Are the GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY and GL_INVALID_VALUE errors gone?
Or do they exist w/ the test user as well?
Ie. are those just red herrings?
Do you just run into https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE#Un … lution_set ?

They're gone even with my original user. I think it's not related to this problem.

Probably no.

Re: Invisible or ghosting windows when using Plasma X11 session
Did you try to remove the kscreen layout cache?
Sanity check you moved away the configs while NOT running a KDE session as that user?
Do you have a ~/.drirc ?

Tried but didn't work.

Did that in a console session with greetd stopped.
Do you have a ~/.drirc ?
No.

Re: Invisible or ghosting windows when using Plasma X11 session
Poison the new user: keep copying files from your old user to the new user until it breaks the same way the old user does.
Start with ~/.config and ~/.cache and the ~/.* files (in three batches) - then ~/.local/state and ~/.local/share
Once you've identified a group of files that causes this you can bisect yourself towards the troublemaker - remove half the files of that group (from the new user) and see whether that fixes it again.
If yes, the problem is among those - remove all other ones and restore the offending ones to confirm it's coming from there, then remove half of them and repeat the cycle.
Because you're moving through the files exponentially this will not take *that* many steps.
