@ermo Nvidia driver rolled back. I don't seem to be having mouse problems anymore.

edit: I was wrong, I'm still having mouse problems.

edit 2: Oh, great, now my video player is stuttering as well. : (

    ^Are you sure your system is using the Nvidia GPU?

    Do you mean you manually rolled it back? Because it was rolled back in general anyway (to the 550.x version). So you can just fully update to get it.

            Rolled back, downgraded by you. ReillyBrogan

            This is odd.

            The first time I sent the system information I was on Wayland. That was what was shown in the Info Center. The Nvidia Server Settings did not load all modules.

            The second time I sent the system information (after you asked if I was sure I was using a Nvidia GPU) I was on X11. I am on X11 now. This is what it shows in the Info Center now. The Nvidia Server Settings is loading all modules now.

            When I say modules I mean sections in the left Navigation Panel.

            Not that it matters but (for information) many Linux distros do not load all modules for my Nvidia GPU in the Server Settings. I'm using Solus partly because of how awesome and incredibly well thought it is and partly because it loads all modules.

            edit: I'm going to stay on X11 now and see if stutters still happen. I'll report back at the end of the day. Thank you for your concern! : )

                  Are you perhaps using sddm-wayland-experimental. One Nvidia user in the Support channel had issues with that that were resolved by removing it again.

                      Uuum, I don't know, I don't think so. I switched to Plasma Wayland (by choosing Wayland at the login screen) some weeks ago. I did not have problems BEFORE this update though, all was running smooth.

                      How do I check the sddm version?

                      For the record: Since yesterday (when I switched to X11) I did not have stuttering problems anymore.

                      I think I will wait a few weeks and then switch back to Wayland.

                          [deleted] Do you have sddm-wayland-experimental installed? It's its own package. But you would've had to install it on purpose. So if you didn't you should be fine in that regard.

                              Staudey Negative! sddm-wayland-experimental is not installed.

                                plasma has improved a lot since 6.0, still some oddities though, as there always is. the 5px border radius has improved the looks a lot imo

                                The next sync will come with an updated xwayland which has a bunch of nvidia explicit-sync related fixes. It also comes with an upstream patch to kwin which disabled triple-buffering for nvidia users, so hopefully some of those glitches will be resolved.

                                  I see we have yet another unhappy Firefox user! Sorry, I can't fix your broken browser, but I can suggest a better one, if you're interested. Let me know.

                                  "We just downgraded the Nvidia drivers to fix user-reported issues causing no display output. Apologies to anyone who was excited about explicit sync but having users be able to use their system is more important."

                                  I have synced Week 27 on Sunday.
                                  I have not sync'ed the latest hotfix for Nvidia drivers.

                                  I wish to sync now, but I prefer not to revert back to the rolled-back Nvidia drivers.
                                  Is there a way to temporarily blacklist a specific Nvidia package and sync the rest of the cherry-picks?

                                  Thank you.
