Hello all,
Apologies if this belongs on the user-kde list, but I'm not at all sure that
it's isolated to KDE -- that's just where I've seen it.
I'm running Debian Sid, and I have an odd problem with transparencies
becoming color-distorted (reversed?) in KDE. To be more precise, when I
highlight an icon, either by expanding a "mouse box" over it, or
right-clicking it, the colors become quite distorted -- lots of orange, on
blue icons. This is not the result of a recent upgrade -- I've had the
problem since I installed Unstable about a month ago, but now I've pretty
much exhausted my ability to find an answer in archives/google.
As a further clue, when I go to the "menu effects" section of the style menu
in the KDE control panel, I find that "Software Tint" and "Software Blend"
will both lead to the same distortion, while "Xrender Blend" does not.
As a test, I ran Knoppix 3.4 on my machine, and this problem did not occur.
When I copied over the XF86Config-4 from Knoppix, though, I still had the
problem. Thus I doubt it's a configuration error.
In case it helps, though, here are my lspci output and my XF86Config-4:
