Description David Rankin 2009-08-10 17:42:46 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Tested on openSuSE 11.0 & Arch Linux
K Desktop Environment
Version 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0) "release 152"
Tested with Compiz-0.7.8-9.1 & Compiz-0.8.2
Testing with ATI fglrx driver on ATI RS690M Adapter, ATI 9600 and ATI X800 (also tested with NVidia 8600GT, 8800GT, and 9600GT)

When kde4 starts I have the desktop configured with the Oxygen theme and everything starts OK. When compiz is started, the plasma panel changes to a light theme (I don't know if it's air or aya, but it very light). Screenshot:

The only way to restore the correct theme to the plasma panel is to restart plasma-desktop with:

#!/bin/bash
kbuildsycoca4
kquitapp plasma-desktop >/dev/null 2>&1
kstart plasma-desktop & >/dev/null 2>&1

(some times you have to restart twice)

After restarting plasma-panel, then the proper theme is restored to the panel.

Something is broken somewhere...

It is still oxygen, but it looks like the panel has lost the transparency.

Ahah, that makes sense. It seems the panel is the only think losing transparency because all of the other desktop widgets retain their correct look.
