Description fugifox 2007-12-13 17:48:53 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.97.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

It takes some seconds, over 3-4  the logout screen to be fully displayed.
What's more you can clearly the screen be painted line by line until is fully displayed.

i see the same with the intel driver from git-master (i.e., pretty much broken atm). not really a kde problem, though ... but maybe we can have the effect optional: time how long it takes the first time and if it is excessive, pop up a dialog offering to disable it; additionally add option to kcm (not under session manager, but rather desktop effects or something).

Same here (openSuSE 10.3, Intel laptop graphics)

If you experience the same bug leave a vote or two along with your comment in order to be better tracked.

@Oswald Buddenhagen: 
Although the popup option you suggest sounds a good idea, it can't be thought as the very solution, since this menu is designed to be the default logout screen
