The worst is - these black lines are moving ! I experienced this at SAWH, but I also got this elsewhere, but not everywhere, I think.
I am posting this in the hope that anyone else experiencing this very ugly issue will find this topic and eventually be able to resolve it the same way I did. Moderators, maybe it would make sense to pin this to the top of the Graphics forum ?
Anyways, the bug was solved by installing the proprietary drivers. Here is some information about my system / settings:
- Graphics card: nVidia GeForce 520
- FG version: 2020.4.0 AppImage
- Renderer: ALS
- Water effects: High
- Terrain quality: Medium
- System: Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS
- Desktop: XFCE
- Graphics driver: open-source system default (Nouveau)
I solved the bug by installing the proprietary drivers for my graphics card version 390:
- Code: Select all
~$ sudo apt install nvidia-driver-390
IMPORTANT: do not try to install a version different from 390 - that does not work for the 520 graphics card, and if you afterwards install the 390 driver version, you get a black screen when you should get a login screen. To fix this, you will then have to reinstall your OS. At least that was my experience - this does not necessarily apply to other Ubuntu versions.
