Switching to Oxygen Window Decorations with animation disabled still results in KDE automatically disabling desktop effects. It is the OpenGL compositing selection which is causing kwin to freak out, and since Xrender works fine for the couple management effects I want (the rest is just eye candy I usually disable anyways) I'll live with that for now (or downgrade to 295.33 if the other user on this box complains :) ). - Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Problem is in KDE4.7.4. I get the 100% CPU problem when running Chromium browser, filed a bug on that. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

If you are using Oxygen (i.e., standard setup for workspace appearance), try this as a workaround: System-Settings -> Workspace Appearance -> (Oxygen) Configure Decoration -> DISABLE "Enable animations" That worked for my office PC with non-free Nvidia drivers.
