Description Pablo Barros 2005-10-19 18:54:50 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.92)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.4 Using: -march=k8 -pipe -O2 -fweb -frename-registers
OS:                Linux

When using a vertical transparent panel, after some time it becomes opaque again. On KDE 3.5-beta1 that only happened with the taskbar component, now it affects the whole panel. This is on an AMD64 system, using nvidia closed-source drivers; xorg 6.8.2 and linux kernel 2.6.11.

Just found out, this happens with horizontal panels too, when they get redrawn.
