I was running 12.04 with the KDE 4.92 backports just fine. I decided to test out the latest Mesa using oibaf graphic drivers PPA which usually contains Mesa from master (9.1). After installing this I got the issue in this bug report. However, at the time I chalked it up to issues in the latest

The integration with the clock indicator (is that what it is called?) makes sense to me but I would like to stress the importance of be able to easily see that I am on the clock. Waiting 27 minutes for a bubble to pop-up and remind me is not the most optimal when I just want to check at a glance.
