You can add another thing that doesn't work to the list: Running skype (or any other program) as a separate user.
It works fine if I use Xwrapper.config to run X as root but without it I see only a grey window. I did look into the manual pages but I didn't see anything that looks like it would make things work.
It seems the problem only affects QT programs, after some googling I have found 2 workarounds[1], it seems either of the following environment variables needs to be set: QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM=native QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1 For now I'll use the first one as it seems to be less "bad". Hope this helps someone else. [1] https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=121093 -- Mauro Santos
