What happened?
Switched to Wayland on KDE Plasma - all colors get messed on second invocation of emacsclient --create-frame
Steps to reproduce
Not sure
I think you’re missing a compilation flag for wayland compatibility. I don’t see pgtk on the list of features (--with-pgtk)

Oh, that’s good to know. Do you need to compile emacs from source then, or is there a package in arch/AUR repositories for that?
By the way I uninstalled nvidia drivers and utilities and the problem seems to have gone away. But your solution is obviously better.
I don’t use Arch/pacman so really I have no idea. But emacs-wayland looks like it. Not sure it that version has nativecomp or how to mix features.

Sorry, this was my fault. It turned out that removing mistakenly the /usr/share/egl/egl_external_platform.d/15_nvidia_gbm.json file (while trying to setup GPU Passthrough for libvirt) caused it (90% sure).
Reinstalling nvidia-utils seems to have solved it. Thank you again for your help and sorry for the oversight.
UPDATE: turns out there is more to this story. If you accidentally “crash” KDE Wayland the problem returns.
The problem returns also (permanently) on Hyprland.
Any suggestions would be welcome. 99% this is a DRM graphics issue though.
