Are you using direct rendering? You can check in the Desktop Effects GUI, Advanced tab, Enable direct rendering checkbox. Also, it would be good to do a $ glxinfo | grep direct and check that you get "direct rendering: Yes". If you get something like "direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)", you have to check your environment variables for that one and set it to 0 (or unset it), then try again. You can also check you .kde/share/config/kwinrc for a property named OpenGLIsUnsafe and set it to false if it is true. My problems went away once I activated direct rendering. It's still very much slower than my work laptop's crappy Intel card, but it works. Cheers, - Cassiano -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
