My system has worked for much time, with compositing enabled. But after an update I have this BUG: When i launch many time rdesktop and I connect to severals remote systems, the Xorg screen goes black, but X11 don't crash. I think is a problem related with  kwin. If I kill kwin and i relaunch it, I can continue to work. If I stop compositing, I have no problems. It's seems a problem related to kwin an rdesktop and the management of windows....

so .. file this against KWin, not Plasma.

btw, i've had a horrible time with the intel driver included in OpenSuse 11.1. it's a very poor release on the part of the intel people; highly dissapointing in fact. in any case, i'll file this against kwin and let them decide what to do with it.
