I have been having this same type problem since KDE 4.6.0 came out. Presently on KDE Platform Version 4.6.4 (4.6.4) "release 8", openSUSE 11.4 (2.6.37.6-0.5-desktop). Konqueror Platform Version 4.6.4 (4.6.4) "release 8".

This is an example site:

Plays fine in SeaMonkey 2.0.14, Firefox 4.0, and Epiphany 2.30.6. Also most you tube video's play on Konqueror. Everything else gives black window as describe in comment from   Dimitrios Glentadakis . (
