re-drawing problem - Kde 3.5.9 openSuse 11.0
I have recently installed openSuse 11.0 with Kde 3.5.9 on my Evesham
laptop, and I am getting an odd re-drawing problem which leaves black
areas on the taskbar and the window title bars. This usually comes after
the screen saver has been in use. I don't yet know if it comes at other
times.

This same machine has been running 10.3 with Kde 3 without problems, and
before that 10.1.
I've got an ati graphics card and used the "one-click" install for the ati
drivers. 3D is supported and works well.
Moving a window over the faulty window will correct the problem, as will
hiding and re-showing the taskbar.
Anyone else seen this problem ? Any way to fix it ?
Thanks in advance

A little more information on this. It seems to be connected to the 3D
screen savers. I can get the fault to appear each time I use a 3D screen
saver, indeed, it comes immediately after doing a "test".
Other screen savers seem to not give the fault.
Maybe this is a dirver fault ? If so, who do I tell, and how ?
(I loaded the ATI drivers with "one click install".
