installed packages version:

xorg-server 1.6.3.901-r2
kde-meta 4.3.2
nvidia-drivers 185.18.31

problem:
I'm unable to set OpenGL as compositing type in kde settings, and XRender is very very very slow!

debug:

Quote:
jupiter progeny # lspci | grep -i nvidia
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1)

jupiter progeny # glxgears
11126 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2225.117 FPS

jupiter progeny # glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
GL_EXT_direct_state_access, GL_EXT_draw_range_elements, GL_EXT_fog_coord,

jupiter progeny # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep -i composite
Option "AllowGlxWithComposite" "true"
Option "Composite" "Enable"

jupiter progeny # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep -i glx
# This loads the GLX module
Load "glx"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"
Option "AllowGlxWithComposite" "true"


I think the problem is kde related because glxgears gives enough FPS, with xorg-server 1.5 and kde 4.2 everything was ok.

Are you using nvidia opengl implementation?

Try this:
Code:
eselect opengl show


If you don't have nvidia, do this:
Code:
eselect opengl set nvidia


Restart X server and retry with KDE OpenGL composition.

opengl as compositing type is not permitted
