Hi all,
After switching from Xorg to Wayland out of necessity for the 580 driver, I found that games crash instantaneously when using specifically the touchpad to change workspaces with the 3 finger swipe gesture (or even when not changing workspaces by swiping toward a "left workspace" at the leftmost workspace).
Random details:
- I can safely switch workspaces with the Super + Mouse Wheel Scroll and through Ctrl + Super + Left/Right, but the touchpad swipe crashes it.
- It is game independent (i.e., BG3 and Tabletop Simulator).
- It doesn't matter if the game is full screen or not.
- I've tried in On-demand and Performance PRIME profile modes.
- I've tested it with laptop versions of these Nvidia GPUs: 3080 Ti and a 4070.
- It's different that the Xorg crashes, which led to black game screen windows: on Wayland, the touchpad swipe completely closes the game.
Here's the most bizarre part:
- The crash only happens when the window has focus. If you Alt+Tab to a different window in the same workspace (or do anything else that makes the game lose focus), the game doesn't crash when you swipe.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks!
