What does "status: invalid" mean? In XFCE > Settings > Additional Drivers > Additional Drivers, it's currently set to "NVIDIA Corporation GF106M [GeForce GTX 460M] "[x] Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-390 (proprietary, tested)". Other options are "[ ] Using NVIDIA bindary driver - version 340.106 from nvidia-340 (proprietary)" and "[ ] Using X.Org server - Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)"
Tried to install nvidia-340, but it cocked up and left the system in a bad state. I couldn't even revert to nvidia-driver-390 without doing a lot of "apt --fix-broken install ... dpkg-divert --remove" loops. Installed the nouveau driver, doesn't send output to the primary display, had to plug in a second display. (???) used "xfwm4-tweaks-settings" to make sure Compositing is turned on. Started "totem vapourwave.mp4" and... no transparency. does_not_reproduce NVIDIA website says the latest "long lived" (stable?) version is 390.77 (2018-07-16). https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/136120/en-us . It won't let me install it because of the kernel modules already installed, which I can't remove with modprobe nor rmmod because "resource is in use" despite no dependencies and I already stopped X.Org. I'll keep trying. Looking like it's a bad interaction between Totem and the NVIDIA proprietary driver (nvidia-driver-390). Weird that the other video players, even the gstreamer-based ones, don't suffer the same problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767711 Title: Nvidia+XFCE: Totem window is see-through during playback, colours washed out Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu: New Status in totem package in Ubuntu: New Status in xfce4 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04, the Totem player will show everything behind it during playback, and the colours of the video are washed-out. https://i.imgur.com/0AwJMmf.jpg I did not find 'tranparency' nor 'opacity' setting in the program preferences, and the colour adjudgement settings are pinned to +/-0.
