After the update to Xorg 1.9 I had to disable compositing (editing ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc). I own an intel gm45 chipset.
I tried to update to xorg, mesa and intel video driver from [unstable], too, and found kde unusable with compositing enabled (huge flickering). So, I reverted all the stack back to [extra]. I own an intel gm45 chipset, too.
