Hi,
I am facing a weird issue with my Graphic card. I have Geforce 1080ti graphic card. Drive is installed properly. Please see the attached screen. But I am getting this error “Desktop effects were restarted due to graphic reset” and my system becomes unusable. I have to restart to get back.

Try disabling desktop compositing. You should disable the “Enable compositor on startup” option in System Settings > Display and Monitor > Compositor if you are using KDE.

I did before, then I found another solution on ARCH Linux forum. Turn on one of your desktop effect called “Contrast” then you can keep the composite on for smoother experience. I did it, now it seems to be working without any issue.
