Thanks, Yannick. This does work. Okay, Michael, this also answers your question whether kwin crashes with direct rendering forced. No, it doesn´t. So there are two issues: 1) kwin crashes with blur effect and indirect rendering. I think thats purely a KDE/kwin issue. 2) kwin switches to indirect rendering due to changed OpenGL renderer string for Intel DRM in Mesa 7.11. Where to report that? Also kde-window- manager? According to mesa-devs I believe so, cause they tend to think that relying on a certain renderer string is bad. I tend to agree also Martin Graesslin, kwin developer, pointed out that there is not much of another alternative. Please advice where to file bug reports.
