Bug 256037

Application: kwin (4.5.3 (KDE 4.5.3))
KDE Platform Version: 4.5.3 (KDE 4.5.3) (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.6.3
Operating System: Linux 2.6.36 x86_64
Distribution (Platform): Gentoo Packages

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

1. open systemsettings
2. go into desktop effects
3. make sure they are enabled
4. click to enable shadows
5. click apply

For me it crashes. It seems to be something related to the radeon GL stuff. I am using mesa 7.8.2 and xorg-server 1.9.2, with the open source radeon driver. My gpu info is:

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 [Radeon HD 4200

I can provide any extra info you need.

The crash can be reproduced every time.
