Walter,
I think this is a compound problem.....there are multiple issues.
1. KDE doesn't store most of the X settings, as pointed out by others, so KDE tweaking is unlikely to help. 2. The fact that you can't use Gnome either confirms that it's not a KDE problem, it's an X problem (and this list is really just for KDE).
aehm, actually that list is (or was) for xorg, and what ever KDE and GNOME breaks may affect other components also.
3. That you need to play with ACPI settings tells me that this problem is at a deeper level than the X system and WMs - kernels and drivers have come a long way since 11.2, but we don't know which kernel you have on 11.2. I consider that a bug in the i915 driver it needs button.ko and some other acpi specific stuff. i do not think that the cases are related.
4. I recommend a clean install: as you have /home in a separate partition, there is little risk.
yea, but i would like to understand where the problem is. the update should have installed the latest drivers and the kernel is new too.
Regards,
Paul
