Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux When screensaver mode is left by entering a key, KDE seems to run amok: parts of the screen are repeatedly repainted, seemingly with the content it had when the screensaver was activated. Finally, after some time, mouse click and keyboard input fail. The system has to be rebooted via the power button. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start the system 2. Enter screensaver by mode by not using input devices 3. Leave screensaver by mode by entering a key Actual Results: Parts of the screen are repeatedly repainted with old content (modifications are overwritten). Finally, after some time, mouse click and keyboard input fail. The system has to be rebooted via the power button. Expected Results: The system should simply resume operation. The bug occurs after upgrade from openSuse 11.4 to openSuse 12.1
i can only imagine some "funny" interaction with kwin and the x server ... maybe try disabling compositing?
"kcmshell kwincompositing", 3rd tab ("advanced") - is "suspend desktop effects for fullscreen windows" checked? Try to uncheck it.
Hello Thomas, hello Oswald, "kcmshell kwincompositing" at first left me wondering, as there is no kcmshell in my Linux installation and yast also does not offer it. However, in "Systemeinstellungen/Arbeitsflächeneffekte/Erweitert" "Arbeitsflächeneffekte für Fenster im Vollbildmodus aussetzen" was checked. Unckecking it, indeed did solve the problem. This also has the positive side effect that now resume from sleep works again - before going to sleep the screensaver seems to be activated, and that prevented a successful resume. Thank you!

my fault - is "kcmshell4" - numpad was probably deactivated... (oder so, "schwitz" ;-) The setting is meanwhile defaulted off for that reason - what GPU/driver do you use? (in doubt, attach "glxinfo" output - you can redirect it "glxinfo > my_glx_info.txt")

FYI: You're replying to a bugtracker what means you a) don't have to (and should not) quote mails b) can unfortunately not attach to the bug by attaching to the mail (would be a great feature, though)

Thanks, please check http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MesaDrivers While developing nicely, the nouveau/OpenGL support is not yet in a productive state and has to be used with *great* care (be aware that driver bugs /can/ longtime damage your HW, so you should at least have a constant eye on temperature - while the GPU is pretty robust, in a close environment like a notebook it can eventually kill the CPU) "Joe user" should consider to use the nvidia blob for now (unless prevented by religious attitudes ;-) but no testing also implies less development pace. -> Rate yourself and act accordingly.
Thanks for the warning, but sensors normally show temperatures in the range between 50 and 70 °C. I have tried the nvidia drivers (mainly because hdmi sound does not work for my current Linux installation), but curiously the graphics was not better (nicer?) and I still did not get hdmi sound to work. So, I am sticking with the nouveau driver. Thats's what openSuse installs per default, anyway.
