Description albert 2008-07-11 01:00:29 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.83)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

If you insert some characters, let's say "kde", the panel stretches showing the applications matching the inserted string. Now, if you erase part of that string, let's say "de", in such a way that there are no more applications matching the remaining characters, the panel reverts to the initial size but the part of the screen previously covered by krunner remains black untill you move the panel.

this is a compositing problem, possibly in kwin (possibly in the video driver).
Comment 3 Julian Hernandez Gomez 2008-07-11 05:18:18 UTC
Same problem here.

I'm using 4.00.85 (KDE 4.0.85 (KDE 4.1 >= 20080703)) from Debian experimental.

Video card: 

00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

Video driver:

xserver-xorg-video-intel      2.3.2

Comment 4 albert 2008-07-11 10:43:25 UTC
My video card is: ATI Technologies Inc M9+ 5C61 [Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)] (rev 01)
The driver is: X.org radeon 4.3.0

Confirmed here on nvidia proprietary.
Comment 6 Dario Andres 2008-07-20 20:32:48 UTC
(KDE 4.0.99 (4.1RC1+) in ArchLinux)

Intel Integrated Video Card:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) 

Driver: xf86-video-intel 2.3.2

KWin compositing disabled (doesn't work for me)

My situation is a bit different: when I delete part of the search, the panel stays in the same height that when where matches, and after ~4/5 seconds it goes back to the normal height (search bar only height); but it doesn't display a weird shadow/black-rectangle below.
Comment 7 Dario Andres 2008-11-29 20:28:57 UTC
Can anyone still reproduce this bug with a recent KDE version? (4.1.3 / 4.2beta1 / 4.2svn)? Thanks :)
Comment 8 albert 2008-11-30 12:32:46 UTC
For me, krunner works perfectly now (kde 4.1.3). 
Comment 9 Dario Andres 2008-11-30 12:35:34 UTC
If you think this bug is fixed, you can close it as RESOLVED with resolution WORKSFORME. And if you later experience this bug again, you can re-open it. :) 
Comment 10 albert 2008-11-30 12:51:14 UTC
Ok, then I mark this bug as resolved.
