[Bug 876762] [NEW] KDE crashes at login with desktop effects enabled

 

Public bug reported:

I have a HP DV6 6121tx laptop, with Intel Core i7 sandybridge and a
discrete GPU (Ati 6770m) and an Intel GPU.

Whenever I login to Kubutu with desktop effects enabled, X crashes at
the KDE splash screen and drops back to the login screen (kdm). Any
subsequent logins work since KDE automatically disabled desktop effects
after a crash.

However, if I login with effects disabled and enable then _after_ logging in then everything works fine until I logout.
I've also tested compiz, and it works without any problems.

All packages are of latest version.

Here's some more info:
