Reindl's is right. Plasma 5 graphical glitches are very annoying, months
ago when I just installed F22 KDE Plasma 5 I ingenuously thought it was
only a Kickoff problem and I filled a bugreport [1] "Increase transition
timings between entries and sub-entries" but the problem interests all
the Plasma 5 graphical user interface. As soon as possible I want to
fill some bugreports using different videocards and FOSS drivers. I only
need to be told if there are any Plasma and/or driver flags that need to
enabled in order to get debuginfos.
I will also record some videos with a camera, to better show to KDE
developers what I exactly mean by "graphical glitches"
