Hi, am I the only who considers KDE 4.7 unusable? It looks like desktop
effects don't work at all here (bnc#709509). Switching windows flashes
with the whole screen. plasma-desktop eats CPU (bnc#711515) etc. Does
K4.7 work OK for you all?

thanks,
For me the magic ticket is nvidia drivers no newer than 260.19.44. This is
the last driver where everything (desktop effects) worked flawless. Problem
is it needs to be patched to build on 2.6.39-2-desktop kernel and in it's
present state will not build any newer kernel. I think that is fixable as I
located the version test it does, just have been way too busy with other
things to try it. For me, all newer drivers since 260.19.44 mess with
desktop effects, and other things as well.

I've just loaded up nvidia 280.13 and it fixed all the screen corruption issues I'd been having with the 270.x series. Try that?
