Please try to disable direct rendering in the advanced compositing options. This is most likely caused by the bugfix for bug #240956. Yes, that helped. Now it works again. Created attachment 48442 [details]
debugging output
this contains output from inxi, glxinfo and Xorg logs
HI all, I have just upgraded to KDE SC 4.5 RC1 and I am facing the same problem. I have an Intel 4500M integrated graphics card and things like cover switch and the genie effect used to work in KDE SC 4.4 but now they cannot be started. I am running Arch 64bit and I installed from. I have tried disabling direct rendering but that doesn't help. I am attaching some console output with hardware, glx and Xorg logs. Enabling "Disable functionality check" in Desktop Effect - System Settings, apparently do the trick. as suggested in this link [1]. CPU util is still high tho [1] http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=111&t=88944 I think we have some workarounds to this problem with disabling functionality checks, blacklisting the drivers and disabling direct rendering. So to me this is a worksforme. |
