Description:
One week ago after an update the icons that stay on the panel became corrupted. The Kmix, Pidgin, klipper, etc... are all mixed with the clock digits and the K menu icon.

Even a fresh created user shows the same problem... so, it is not my KDE configures that are bad.

Additional info:
* package version(s)

# pacman -Qi kdebase-workspace | grep Version
Version : 4.1.3-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Just install the last KDE on an ArchLinux.

Do you use some special optinos in your xorg.conf? Do you use the nvidia driver?
Comment by Thomas TS (ttsoares) - Friday, 12 December 2008, 02:39 GMT
Not Nvidia, it an Intel card in a Acer Aspire 5920.
After a xorg update made by an pacman -Su it was needed some xorg.conf adjustments - but this was after the issue reported here appears.

Anyway i doubt that a xorg.conf tweak will produce this kind of impact !!

If it is needed i can post my xorg.conf somewhere to be examined...

Do you have a MigrationHeuristic option in xorg.conf? If so, remove it, as it causes weird system tray corruption in KDE. I haven't seen this type of corruption yet though.

Yes !!
Some days ago Arch upgraded xorg. This made a chaos with my keyboard and touchpad. After some googling i made some tweaking at xorg.conf and added the option

Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"

after comment this option the problem reported here vanished...

Thanks for the help :-)

SLACK AND ARCH - THE PERFECT COMBO !!!
