Hi Rik- Thank you very much for the advice. I fully updated my system again, with no packages held back, rebooted, and was happy to try removing the two packages you mentioned.
I was pleasantly surprised that I seem to have full performance with graphical effects, so apparently some package update in the last 12-ish hours has fixed this issue. I attempted to remove the two packages you mentioned, to give you better feedback, but I found that I don't have any package installed with the prefix "libglv" -- I'm typing "apt remove libglv" and tab-completion isn't suggesting any installed packages. I likewise do not have a package "libegl1" installed, but 'apt remove' tab completion suggested 'libegl1-mesa', and I'm guessing that removing this would have a lot of side effects: """ root@isomorphic:~# apt remove libegl1-mesa Reading package lists...

Sorry to raise an issue about a transient problem that worked itself out, but it's hard to tell ahead of time whether something is very specific to certain video hardware (and might not be noticed if no Kubuntu developers are using the same hardware), or whether it's a widespread issue that will be noticed and fixed quickly.
