Public bug reported:

This issue occurs with KDE 3.5.7 on Kubuntu 7.10 Beta (current as of
today).

When selecting the "Log out..." option in the "K" menu the screen is
supposed to fade out from top to bottom behind the option dialog that
gets displayed offering variuous options ranging from log out to
shutdown.

However, during the fade out the screen becomes partially garbled or
displays some content from a previous screen state, i.e. it may contain
information from a window that has already been closed, changed or
minimized in the mean time.

I will attach a photograph of the screen that hopefully clarifies what I
mean: The upper half of this photograph shows Launchpad open in Firefox
whereas the lower half of the screen displays content that was not
active at the time I selected "Log out...".

The issue occurs with the open source nv driver as well as with the
closed source one. In case it turns out to be hardware related, I have
also attached some output of lspci, dmesg as well as my Xo config and
logs.
