Created attachment 497468 [details] Badly rendered window title-bar and desktop menu in KDE Plasma 4.6 Description of problem: Using a new Thinkpad T420 with the Intel HD 3000 graphics card, 1600x900 display: Pop-menus, the system's application menu, and window title bars are rendered badly, both with and without desktop effects enabled. This was confirmed using a full install as well as with the Fedora 15 Beta KDE Live CD. With desktop effects turned off, the background of mis-rendered items comes out partially black. With effects turned on, they usually come out partially or entirely transparent. Both cases make menu items very difficult to read. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): The latest KDE and intel driver as of filing this bug: xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.14.0-6.fc15.x86_64 qt-4.7.2-8 kdelibs-4.6.2-4 How reproducible: Right click on desktop to open desktop menu Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log into KDE 4.6 Plasma 2. right click on the desktop to get menu 3. view menu with badly rendered background Actual results: See attachment Expected results: Additional info:
