CS2 on KDE plasma goes black for a few seconds (lemmy.world)

Hello,

I tried to jump over to KDE from gnome yesterday and have experienced a lot of issues in CS2. Maybe I am missing some shared libs or anything, if you know of fixes to the following issues I would love to hear them :)

Every so often my screen goes black while playing cs2. It remains black for a few seconds before coming back alive.
My KDE panels are appearing Infront of CS2 every time I alt tab and the only way to fix it is to go into settings and go > Windowed > back to Fullscreen.

I am running endeavourOS Nvidia 545.29.06 on a GTX 1070ti

Thank you

Sounds like a compositor issue. Look up your issues more generally with KDE instead of focusing on CS2 directly. There are some tweaks you can make with the full screen compositor that can make your experience better. Also try full screen vs windowed settings modes and see if you get any difference.

In case this is a compositor issue, there is a keybind on KDE that lets you toggle it off. Easier than switching it in the settings every time.

Not normally a KDE user, so great tip in case I switch. ⛽
