Description Pierre Fortin 2022-09-18 22:48:02 CEST

Description of problem:  using the system normally.  On a zoom call. 
Zoom video froze. Audio still OK both ways. Far end says everything still looks ok at his end.  After a minute or two, audio started stretching (s..l..o..w..)
Rebooted via power button.

Before power down finished, there were 2818 occurrences of kwin log events consisting of 15 lines each; the first one occurred at boot time (Sep 15 11:06:05), the rest when the flashing started (Sep 18 12:26:51) until shutdown about 14 minutes later (Sep 18 12:40:12).

I have a short video from on my cell phone if that might help...

Does this still happen with kwin-5.25.90-1.mga9 (which landed on the mirrors today)?

Not sure what did it; but system has been much more stable for about a week now; although I've been avoiding streaming video (using my phone for now). I'll try resuming videos...

Still looking solid. Closing.
