I'm not sure if I understand this right... so the active desktop effects
mess up everything, and it is even hard to start systemsettings and turn
them off?
Try Alt+Shift+F12, this toggles the desktop effects. I use it on a PC (not
my own desktop, at least one problem that _I_ do not run into) where all
plasma stuff is just black, including the panel, so I cannot open the K menu
or call krunner. This happened after the upgrade from 4.6.2 to to 4.6.3,
4.6.4 is not installed there yet. Could also be the X.org update that
happened along the KDE update.
You can also edit ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc, and set Enabled=false in the
[Compositing] section.
