My software versions are as follows: $ pulseaudio --version pulseaudio 0.9.21-rebootstrapped-dirty $ kwin --version Qt: 4.6.3 KDE Development Platform: 4.4.5 (KDE 4.4.5) KWin: 4.4.5 (KDE 4.4.5) I don't feel like installing too much software from outside the repositories. It is too much of a hassle for me to maintain. I believe kwin is responsible for the screen effects in KDE. I will try changing the resample method, and see what happens. ;)Frode -- Da sa Gud: "Det bli lys!" Og det ble lys. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 1.
