I don't know if the problem is in KDE or compiz. However I have a crash log which says that kde4-window-decorator crashed and this is why I submitted this but here.

Here is the crash log:

Application: kde4-window-decorator (0.0.1)
KDE Platform Version: 4.7.2 (4.7.2)
Qt Version: 4.7.4
Operating System: Linux 3.0.0-13-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 11.10

-- Information about the crash:
<Opowiedz nam szczegĂłĹowo o czynnoĹciach wykonywanych, gdy program ulegĹ awarii.>

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KDE Window Decorator (kde4-window-decorator), signal: Segmentation fault

Yep, the decorator is a Compiz plugin, otherwise you would not see any decorations. You could try other Compiz decorators, such as Emerald, but I do not know which versions of Compiz still support them.

Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2011-11-03 22:20:32 UTC
I should add that the name "KDE Window Decorator (kde4-window-decorator)" is misleading. This decorator uses the KDE decorations (likely Oxygen), but still is a Compiz plugin/addon. If the bug would be in Oxygen, they would crash KWin, too.
