Created attachment 7324 bug1 today i update all package to gtk3 version and i notice that all menu are blinking or disappears. i found that responsible for this is settings in settings/windows manager tweaks/compositor/enable display compositing. if i disable compositing all windows or menu works.
Created attachment 7325 bug2
and i do a video of this bug when windows composition is enable and disable https://send.firefox.com/download/a1cc896c40/#3fgKCwr0CTQ1YzZZRq8Lww ps: i have laptop with Mesa DRI Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chips
and i record video with enable and disable windows manager compositing https://ufile.io/2jxkm ps: i have laptop with Mesa DRI Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chips
if someone have the same problem i found solution. i change xfce windows manager (xfwm4) to metacity simply: sudo pacman -S metacity and add to autostart metacity --replace
I had the same issue while I was using video-intel driver. The problem disappeared by switching to modesetting - so apparently this seems to be a problem either of intel driver itself or at least of xfce compositor with intel driver.
Encountering this on gentoo. Intel video driver. Turning off compositing stops the blinking -but also- when running without consolekit, there is no blinking; i.e. adding "--with-ck-launch" to startxfce4 triggers this bug for me. startxfce4 with nothing added runs fine even with compositor enabled.
