Window not updating on linux X11 #6943
Comments
You're using X11(XWayland) for alacritty, try using Wayland natively instead. Also, you're using llvmpipe, so I'd assume you're in some VM setup. |
I think I've seen something like that on X11 with llvmpipe in a vm. Could you try maybe #6846 branch? |
@kchibisov Not a VM but NixOS. |
But nixOS shouldn't prevent you from doing any GPU acceleration. In any case, if you want to use Wayland, then you're using X11 instead or force alacritty to run under XWayland. Try native Wayland instead. |
When I have some more time, I will try to run on native wayland (once I workout how to do it). I'll also try bisecting to see what changed that introduced this issue, since previous versions were working perfectly. |
it's an old issue with |
After updating my nixos configuration, the issue appears to have disappeared. I am not sure if that was due to a change in alacritty or a dependency however. Feel free to close this issue since I don't think there is anything actionable to do here. |
Very possible that this was an issue in a driver. |
There appears to be some delay in the rendering of the frame. On a new alacritty terminal simply press
enter
into the prompt and the cursor will appear at the beginning of the new line and the terminal prompt won't render until the window is updated. Pressing another key or clicking the window will update it causing the prompt to be rendered again.;
The same issue does not arise in other terminals. This worked before version 0.12.
In this video I am pressing enter, and the cursor goes to the next line as described earlier. Afterwards, I press on the window with my mouse causing it to rerender.

I should also note that it will not rerender until I do something to force it to be redrawn.
