2021-09-03 08:19:07 Chris Guiver description ** quick notes I'll add more soon; link other report(s; 1 kubuntu, 1 ubuntu) & maybe mark duplicate NOTE: this or like issue is experienced with Ubuntu (GNOME) & Kubuntu (KDE) so it's not surprising. It does not occur on Xubuntu & Lubuntu though. Daniel (vanvugt) has suggested this box should only be used for 20.04; bugs in nouveau are difficult for Ubuntu to track down.. but this box is what I have for QA-installs. Install worked flawlessly except the adjust.screens.to.match.my.setup which I consider part of system shakedown.. Of NOTE: I can click the 'hide all windows & show desktop' and screen muck up was gone in an instant; hit it again & windows were returned & usable.
