[Bug 277629] Re: Desktop grid locks X when something is being displayed full screen

[warhammerkid]

I just wanted to add that I just upgraded from Hardy where I was using the kde4 packages from the special repo and I wasn't having problems, but now that I'm on Intrepid, full screening any app breaks desktop grid. When I move my mouse to another desktop, the full screen app continues to be displayed, except it stops updating, and when I do a show all (Ctrl+F8), X seems to deadlock. I'm using the latest version of NVidia's driver (direct from NVidia) and my KWin settings are:
Compositing type: OpenGL
Keep window thumbnails: Always
OpenGL mode: Texture From Pixmap
Direct rendering: yes

I did some experimentation and the problem only appears if the app is in
the foreground and is in full screen mode (if the bottom panel is still
showing, switching desktops still work). Therefore I suspect that this
might be a plasma or kwin bug.
