Trouble with gnome-control-center on my 14.1-RELEASE Desktop

Greetings,

I'm having trouble with the gnome-control-center on my Desktop running 14.1-RELEASE, I also saw it in 14.0. When I run the gnome-control center it is unusable, you can't read it, see attached screenshot.
My Desktop has an Intel Xeon CPU with an GeForce GT 730 Nvidia GPU. I mention this because I also have a Lenovo thinkpad T470 with Intel HD Graphics 620 and it does not have the issue. Just wondering
if there is a know issue with the GeForce GPU? Everthing else looks fine, it's just the gnome-control-center app giving me problems.

thanks
John

hi , jrushford:
i think that is not your geforce gpu issue. do you install nvidia driver ? pkg search nvidia , you will find a suit for your geforce gt 730 driver. then reinstall gnome with pkg install gnome
 
I've tried again after re-installing nvidia drivers and after the most recent gnome updates and am still having this issue. I'm unable to use the gnome-control-center at all as it's completely unreadable. I'll have to find some way to adjust my screen resolution some other way, perhaps in the xorg config file. I really prefer gnome but, I'll switch back to KDE plasma for now.

hi. jrushford :

pkg install nvidia-driver-550.54.14

add line your /etc/rc.conf as below content:
#enable GUI of gnome
dbus_enable="yes"
gdm_enable="yes"
gnome_enable="yes"

in your shell as root , run blow command ;
root@fb14:/home/game # gnome-control-center
you will see what happened to your gnome-control-center.

Thanks, I tried this but that 550.54.14 driver does not work with my card. I used the 470-470.161.03_1 driver. In any case, when I launch the gnome-control-center, the application window is washed out. It's like X resources aren't set correctly. All other applications BTW, are rendering okay.
