Hi, I had the same problem with my laptop. I may be able to help you. On mine I have to set a module parameter or it says it is disabled by hardware switch. I also have an Elantech touchpad I see in another post you are having trouble with. Let me know the make and model of your laptop and your desktop environment and i’ll see if I can help.

@bmeister Yeah, I did. There is a bit of transparency I didn’t like. I’m too picky I guess. Besides, I couldnt handle the gnome desktop, as I have been using Mate since it came out i think. Mate and mutter is a nice combination.

I remember having a problem like this a few years ago with XFCE. I think it is caused by the dock because it requires that your window manager uses compositing. If you enable it, it should dissapear, or you could just disable the dock. It can be done in settings. I may be wrong, but hope it helps you.

@bmeister OK thanks. I found flat-plat works too. I’ll give vertex a shot and see how it looks, not really liking the Arc theme. I like a theme where the gnome panel and title bars for windows match, like in Numix-SX. I find it more consistent looking. Thanks again.

Sorry didn’t notice you said that, got a head of myself. Do you know of any other working themes?

I had the same problem. Remove the installed theme and install gtk-theme-arc-git from the AUR. That one is updated to work with gnome 3.20
