another screen shot
Update: it seems that I may have been a bit premature in blaming this error on Konsole. I've started to notice the problem as well with other applications, such as an Adobe Reader pop-up window (see attachment). This suggests that it's a problem with the updated version of KDE window manager rather than Konsole.
It's very difficult to catch a screen shot of the error, as the ksnapshot screen capture program sometimes implements a refresh of the screen and makes the error disappear.
NVidia driver bug, report directly to NVidia. |

When windows are resized, sometimes the titlebar text is written properly, sometimes it is written as black spaces.
