I am running 4.8.1 since two weeks ago, but there was an update to 4.8.1-r1 three days ago, and I did not log out of KDE since today. But there was also an update to Xorg yesterday, from 1.11.4 to 1.12.0. Absolutely no such issues, here (also on Gentoo, ~amd64/no-multilib FWIW, with the kde, x11 and mozilla overlays). I too have the xorg-server 1.12.0 update, kde 4.8.1, etc. One big difference, however, would be that I've disabled semantic-desktop entirely, and don't have kdepim or akonadi or any of that stuff on the system. So all this Akonadi stuff comes via [semantic-desktop]? I'd a bad time disabling it, so it's enabled for now. ___ This message is from the kde mailing list.

Unlikely, the technoligies themselves are unrelated and Gentoo usually doesn't add artifical dependenices (AFAIK). Some KDEPIM applications are users of both though, so they might look related. But I would be surprised if they were on their package level.
