Guys, Testing xf86-video-ati-6.12.99.git20091207 libdrm-2.4.16-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz I noticed that the plasma-panel has lost transparency in kde4 when compiz is enabled. It's not uncommon for me to need to restart plasma-desktop to regain transparency, but with these two packages installed, even that doesn't work. I use a small rsplasma script to restart the desktop: 01:33 alchemy:~> cat bin/rsplasma #!/bin/bash kbuildsycoca4 kquitapp plasma-desktop >/dev/null 2>&1 kstart plasma-desktop & >/dev/null 2>&1 This is which radeon loaded in rc.conf due to the current hang in used with KMS. Anybody else see this? Everything else with the driver and drm seems to work OK, but I haven't rebuilt the initramfs for KMS early yet (waiting on more info on the driver issue). Do you want me to try that?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. Rankin Law Firm, PLLC 510 Ochiltree Street Nacogdoches, Texas 75961 Telephone: (936) 715-9333 Facsimile: (936) 715-9339 www.rankinlawfirm.com
