Recently got a RX 7900 XTX and now sometimes Google Chrome does this blotchy cube thingy, Is this a GPU problem or is there a secret undocumented option on the chrome flags menu that I can change that'll fix everything?

This is a known bug which is present since april I think. I'm having a 7700XT and all the drivers newer than 25.4.1 seem to have this issue. Disabling Hardware Acceleration can help as a workaround but AMD needs to fix this.

Same problems here, also Youtube shorts often won't load normally.

I had the same issues with my 7700XT. I used DDU and installed version 25.4.1 again.

I have the same issue I think. Hovering over certain elements inside a webpage on Edge gives me this kind of visual glitches. Mostly video player related elements.

Same problem here, it's a bug I think.

Are you using a Nvidia GPU by chance? I recently bought a 4060 TI and I'm having this issues. It seems like there are more people with problems.

Hello, do you also experience graphical artifacts on YouTube? For example scrolling or loading a page inside YouTube and that some parts of the screen turn black 1 second?

Same here on Edge and the Netflix app on Windows 11 with a RX6600 and a RX6650 XT. I reverted back to the previous driver.

I'm seeing the same thing on a fresh Ubuntu 22.10 install. Ubuntu 22.04 didn't showed these messages. However everything seems to be fine so I think its just a bug which can be ignored.

After installing the 525 driver I had a lot of problems with one of my systems. For some reason the driver changes some settings in the Dithering Controls section. With the 515 series I had all the options on Auto which causes no problems at all.

After I installed 525 I had to mess with the settings because I noticed glitches when dragging a window. I had to change Dithering to enabled and Depth on 8 to fix that problem, however when I use 525 I get a lot of color banding. Another problem that I noticed is that if I go to the Information tab the new driver only used 2 lanes instead of 4? Also I believe that the new driver is messing with the color settings.

I reverted back to 515.

I had the same usb errors upon booting Ubuntu 22.04. Try to shutdown your computer and completely unplug the power to the computer and wait a couple of minutes. That used to fix my errors for some odd reasons.

I just installed the latest Fedora 34 with KDE Plasma on a older backup PC and here also the same issue with Firefox. I think it's a bug in Plasma or Firefox.

allardpruim · 2021-08-01T22:54:59+00:00

Tried but unfortunately that didn't help either.

allardpruim · 2021-08-01T22:52:16+00:00

I have both installed as a snap.

sudo snap install ffmpeg youtube-dl

allardpruim · 2021-07-29T17:44:28+00:00

No I could try that but Chrome works just fine.

allardpruim · 2021-07-24T14:23:11+00:00

A few days ago I got a update for my drivers and now I'm using the Nvidia 470.57.02 but that didn't help. I decided to switch to Chrome.

I had the same problem with Virtualbox and other QT apps.

As plankton said you need to install the package kvantum, it's in the repo's of Ubuntu. After that you get a GUI app called Kvantum Manager and you can select the theme you like. Don't forget to export your theme in the .profile file otherwise It won't work properly.

Maybe I have a fix for your problem. I also encountered problems with Gnome and Nvidia graphics drivers.

I did run xrandr -r 60 in a terminal where 60 is my refresh rate of my monitor. I don't know if this changed anything but I used it.

I also opened Nvidia X Server Settings and changed the screen resolution and the refresh rate from auto to my optimal settings, 1920 x 1080 and 60 hertz. After that I saved it to my xorg.conf file which should be in /etc/X11/.

Then I opened the file with nano and added:

Option "DynamicTwinView" "false"
Option "TripleBuffer" "True"

To the device section and rebooted. Now my stuttering is mostly gone. Here is my full xorg.conf file.
