Thanks for the update. It does sound like something in the KDE setup (kwin?) was tickling the driver the wrong way. I'm cc-ing the Debian KDE maintainers in case they have a live CD you can test, but otherwise I don't see how to proceed in easily tracking this down further. :/ Hence closing the bug.
