Description Bobby 2008-03-20 12:00:58 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Gcc 4.2-24 
OS:                Linux

The Plasma desktop including widgets discolour strongly if I am writing a text in Firefox. The Panel also flickers, discolours and becomes semitransparent at times. It happens whether I am using compositing or not but it's worse with compositing.
Video card is Nvidia GeForce 6600 LE, driver version: 169.12
