Hello! Sorry for my lateness but I was making some experiments with KDE. It happens to me too, after 2 or 3 hours of use. Not only pop ups pr message boxes are black, but every window. Plasma and wallpaper are fine. I'm using KDE 4.9, Fedora 18 64-bits, and as somebody say, may be it is related with Intel chipset, because my netbook is an Intel one. Is there a bug filed for this issue? Cheers, thanks Lailah
