I've been running Kubuntu 9.04 64bit w/ KDE 4.2.2  lately on my T61 (I
was getting tired of bland gui's). I really like the look, etc.

Problem is I get a weird issue at times when a window is drawn, and a
section looks like static or garbled.
Sometimes it's on the border or sometimes a button thats suppose to be
depressed.

Running another window over it doesn't redraw the bad part as can
sometimes be done with other window managers.  Usually resizing the
window fixes it.
I also had to disable all cool 3D acceleration due to hard
unrecoverable lock ups.

Anyone else running KDE 4 and having these issue?

It's a real shame it isn't stable.  This will give Windows 7 a serious
run for the money if they ever get it right.

Could be my issue is the Intel graphics chipset, which although Intel
opened it up, seems to have stagnated as far as 3D development.

I need to further investigate these issues, before dumping Kubuntu altogether!
