Sure the problem is not the graphics card the problem is the driver. I had 
experience with similar cards and I had the same problems. The solution was to 
follow some hints given on userbase (http://userbase.kde.org/).

FWIW it was not one of my machines but one where my advice was requested and 
the only indication from me as "no nvidia, please". For several reasons the 
only option was a machine with the nvidia card and as I feared problems like 
that appeared. :-(

Believe me the culprit is the proprietary driver. The interface to pass 
options to the driver is awkward, sometimes it almost looks like they have 
tried their best to do their worse. :-)
