opensuse 11 kde4 nividia card

KDE4 :

If you use a nvidia card and have perfomance problems use the latest driver 177-13 is a beta driver

then do the following alteration :
Edit /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager

## Type: string(Xorg,Xgl)
## Path: Desktop/Display manager
## Default: "Xorg"
#
# Xgl is an experimental Xserver using OpenGL for rendering.
# Right now only the glx backend is supported, which runs on top of a
# standard Xorg server providing OpenGL.
# Set this to 'Xgl' and run SuSEconfig only if you want to run your
# displaymanager (kdm/gdm/xdm) on Xgl on top of Xorg.
# This setting is case sensitive.
# Warning! This is highly experimental.
#
DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER="Xgl"


put DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER from Xorg on Xgl


Now kde4 is working as it should for more speed disable desktop animation from settings
With all the alterations mentioned before you have a working destop
Now with kde4 rc1 you kan put icons maps what ever on the desktop even download via firefox

Nothing from the QT4 animation will work but who cares.


PS

If you want to run Compiz on kde4 reverse the above displaymanager setting compiz wont run on Xgl only on Xorg
