Thanks for link, I will try it
but I don't think that this is related to just kde, or Nvidia priority
driver, because I saw the same result when I was using fedora 16 with

I'm wondering if this problem really exist, why nobody complaining about
it? (or its just a problem with me and my configuration or used packages?)
