After some new tests I realized that the described effect seems to occur only when compiz/emerald is active. So it may be related to a combination of compiz and KDE4 - and maybe to graphic card drivers and hardware. All the PCs I mentioned in comment #1 have a nvidia card and I use the nvidia support for the composite management. I'll check further parameters of compiz to see what impact they might have. Same is happening to me. Using Kubuntu Intrepid. But this does not only happen using Composite effects (Compiz or KDE4), but when not using it too. And not only to OpenOffice, but with all apps that uses GTK (Maybe Java too?), since happens with Eclipse, Aptana, etc. Which those use GTK for the GUI. And, this happen only with nVidia propietary drivers (even using the latest version). Not with ATI, not with INTEL, etc. Right, the effects occur without compiz loaded. Sooner or later. So the first part of my comment #1 is wrong. I noticed in addition that not only some areas around the control panel may be affected. I had some events were the whole desktop background went black for a second due to working with Openoffice. Indeed, it affects all the Plasma Desktop. I was testing latest development version of kde4.2 and the same problem still exist there. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 157017 *** |
