+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #375679 +++

This happens every time and it's NOT an issue with opencl/opengl libraries,
NVidia's proprietary driver or underlying hardware capabilities, it's a BUG in
the check which is done prior to launching Kwin.
The same configuration and libraries are working great when running other
Desktop Environments while using the same libraries and drivers. 
i.e. I can run World of Warcraft flawlessly with wine with opengl-3.1 from
LxQT.
