I have a doubt regarding this bug: I was one of the users who had this problem and with the first patch proposed (that got into Arch Linux fast) it got fixed. However, there's something strange:
I use KDE with desktop effects turned on. For maybe a year or more before this bug happened I was using them with OpenGL 3.1 (in the System Setting -> Desktop effects -> Advanced you can choose that). When I upgraded to kernel 3.14 the desktop effects stopped working. Downgrading to 3.13 fixed it (and 3.14 + patch the same), but only if I selected OpenGL 2.0 instead of 3.1. Which is strange, because before upgrading it worked with OpenGL 3.1 normally, but after downgrading it didn't. Since then always the same, each time I try OpenGL 3.1 it breaks. And other users who suffered from this bug reported the same, OpenGL 3.1 didn't work for them either. I know it is a DIFFERENT BUG from this one, but I still wanted to ask if after kernel 3.14 OpenGL 3.1 works for anyone. And is there any other way of testing if it actually works other than in kwin? My graphics are Ironlake based (Gen 4?).
