Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.5) OS: Linux Exactly what it sys on the tin - I also notice that when I run "kwin --replace", it shows that I have the NV30 Graphics card, whereas I actually have the NV34 (nVidia) The problem is not present in XRender. Every time this problem is present, I can activate and deactivate the desktop cube to refresh the contents of the screen. In most cases, I can also get to a terminal and restart kwin, and it begins working perfectly again and all my work is saved. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Activate any of the effects I described. Actual Results: KWin freezes. Expected Results: Should have not froze.
try to set the scale method to "smooth" instead of "accurate" and please report the outcome. > I have the NV30 Graphics card, whereas I actually have the NV34 try glxinfo, does it report an NV34? If not: the NV30 (FX5800) is theoretically much faster than the NV34 (FX5200)

probably driver problem in combination with lanczos filter. If you use the nouveau driver, switch to the proprietary one.
Switching the scaling method from "accurate" to "smooth" no longer fixes this problem.
Could you please provide some more information about your system. Have you updated the KDE Plasma version in the meantime (4.6 is no longer supported), have you updated the drivers? Could you please provide the output of glxinfo? In case you use nouveau please install the proprietary drivers.
Never mind, it does. Have a nice day.
