Hi All,

I have a have a problem with the plasma GUI. (See attached image)
- the icons don't display and the menu's are messed up.

* I installed the system 2 weeks ago and ran fine until now. I am unsure of what I did prior to the issue that caused it.

So far, I have reset the config of all software, using this method, & then Updated the system
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/update-brok ... em/73613/2
- the problem still remains
- the extent of problem is somewhat intermittent, as when I reboot the taskbar 'may' work for a while before breaking again.
- it displayed correctly after a system update "pacman -Syu" , but when i rebooted, it broke again.

Do you have any suggestions to help me troubleshoot this?
- I am still new to linux, so may be something obvious

Distro : Artix Linux- Runit

Many thanks in advance,

Hello, from what I've managed to work out it is a driver problem and it's related to a second screen. If you have a second screen unplug the hdmi until the system is booted and then insert it as a temporary fix.

Awesome, the temporary fix works, Thanks for your input.

I will continue to investigate for a permanent solution.
Many Thanks.
