@Nathan, Janno: Hi guys, thanks for your time and forgive me the lapse to post my comment but I'm literally out of time these days - personal things and such... I did follow wiki step by step just like I do allways with all the *excellent* Arch wikis and the only problem I found with this Catalyst 10.6.2 is composite effects are not active when loggin in - unlike with 10.4 which works ok giving me composite efffects from startup without the need to hit Alt+Shift+F12 twice in KDE SC. I only experience artifacts problems with xorg-server-backclear (main panel misspainted with black squares) and xorg-server-1.8-catalyst-maximize-fix which renders Kickoff menu and Yakuake unusable. Seems I have to wait to new Catalyst release this time :( Once again, thanks!
