Description
### Kernel
Linux 6.19.6-2-cachyos
### Desktop Environment / Window Manager
KDE Plasma
### CPU
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8250U
### GPU / Driver
Intel UHD Graphics 620 @ 1.10 GHz [Integrated]
### Description
After a recent system update on CachyOS (KDE Plasma), Kodi fails to start properly. While the application icon appears in the Task Manager/Panel, the actual window remains empty or transparent. The workspace does not render the Kodi interface; instead, it appears to "vibrate" or flicker slightly, making it impossible to capture a meaningful screenshot of the issue.
