As on a forum someone pointed out, that with the Heron-Theme, this panel-bug does not occur, I investigated into it and just found some quite simple workaround for that bug:
in the Heron Theme there are PNGs embedded in the SVG, which makes the difference. The Qt-bug obviously only applies to pure SVGs. So I just had to exchange the panel-background.svg in /usr/lib/kde4/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/widgets with a similar looking one that has the gradients embedded as *.png. I must confess that it does not look 100 % exactly as it used to look without desktopeffekts (as there are a lot of transparencies..) but it's definitely better than the old one (with desktop-effects). I'll try to get it better, when I've got the time - but maybe (for sure) the Oxygen-Artists will do even better then. ** Attachment added: "install into /usr/lib/kde4/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/widgets" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12827936/panel-background.svg -- [KDE4] Upgrade to 4.0.2. -> Panel is not displayed properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198362 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
