you may try add:

# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
  Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
    Driver      "intel"
    Option      "AccelMethod"  "uxa"
    #Option      "AccelMethod"  "sna"
  EndSection

reading https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=208427 ;

and because opengl direct rendering, doesn't work in VirtualBox
(released yesterday, 4.0.16 ) with Fedora 24 branch KDE, we may try
change AccelMethod , to see if fix something. 
With "my" KDE4 it working great even better than before , so
unfortunately my deduction is, Plasma 5 have some serious graphic
problems , but what and where ? , but is just with Intel graphics
boards ? , anyway I will build KDE4 workspace and friends for F24 .
We need understand from where came this deadlocks and fix it of course.
But note I don't mean all KDE 5 is bad , I just use kde workspace from
KDE4 the rest is all Fedora out out the box , may goal on next bunch of
packages for F24 , reduce even more the number of package , for example
I'm plan use oxygen-themes etc of official release.
