Visual Corruption in the form of black "sparkles" in KDE
4.5.
Steps to reproduce: Install KDE 4.5 with xorg 1.8.1 and nvidia driver. Open an application (GTK or Qt). Black "sparkles" appear in the top left corner of the screen, flickering but not shifting when a window is dragged. There are no "sparkles" on an empty desktop, only when a window is open. If I type $openbox --replace from the terminal while in KDE 4.5, the problem goes away. |

This bug also appears when using the KDEmod packages with [core] and [extra].
This bug does NOT appear in the latest KDE 4.5 Chakra image.
This bug does NOT appear in KDE FOUR Live CD based on openSuSE
This bug does NOT appear in Linux Mint with Kubuntu KDE 4.5 packages
Thus, I do not believe this bug is in upstream.
I'll see about doing a from-scratch install again and see what happens.
