When the 'Apply' button is pressed, it stops rendering anything on screen. Disabling compositing and re-enabling it makes everything work again, until the next time a setting is changed.
It happens at other times too - for example, sometimes when loading pages in Firefox I see the previous page until I switch tabs and back again. KDE 4.4.5 worked without any problems.
I have Intel 945 graphics and am using KDE 4.5 from Testing repo.
Jan, this appears to be a mesa bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30220
I applied the mentioned one line patch in that bug ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=38759 ) locally and that seems to solve this issue. I didn't experience any side-effects, but I've only been using it for the last half our or so, so I'll keep an eye on possible introduced memory leaks.
