Hi Chris, > Indeed, turning that switch to on and restarting helps. Great!!! Bingo. > I cannot remeber that I ever turned it on or off. But I guess you had, or some cosmic radiation induced bit switch did it for you on your hard disk ;-) The default for all installations is being on. > However, if I turn it back to off, then the problems come back (immedeiately). > So at least the latter seems to be a bug, right? Not really sure. Nowadays running without compositor might not really be possible. I don't have an opinion on that. > In my similar kvm virtualized installtion the switch also is/was off, > but there it seems to make no problems, even after a couple of changes and > restartings. Hmm, that is indeed strange, though. Anyway, I retitle and adjust severity of the bug for now. I suggest that *you* create a bug report at upstream (I guess kwin?) because I cannot reproduce it on my systems (AMD based), and upstream devs will need detailed informations.
