Lost effects after 4.11.2 upgrade

Wed Oct 30, 2013 5:12 pm
After 4.11.2 upgrade, Alt+tab and desktop pager effects do not work anymore. They are enabled in Desktop Effects.

How can I fix this issue?

Thank you.

Start by elaborating on the problem.

a) don't you get any alt+tab switcher anymore or just not coverswitch/flipswitch
b) is compositing active?
Code: Select all
 qdbus org.kde.kwin /Compositor active

c) is it OpenGL compositing? (cover/flipswitch don't work for XRender, there's no frustum concept in that backend)
Code: Select all
qdbus org.kde.kwin /Compositor compositingType

d) do global shortcuts (Alt+F2?) work in general?

I get a simple switcher, but it flickers a little bit when changing the window

b) is compositing active?
Code: Select all
 qdbus org.kde.kwin /Compositor active


This gives: true

c) is it OpenGL compositing? (cover/flipswitch don't work for XRender, there's no frustum concept in that backend)
Code: Select all
qdbus org.kde.kwin /Compositor compositingType


This gives: gl2

Yes they work.

Code: Select all
kcmshell4 kwintabbox

You can select a switcher there.
If any of them does not work, please become more specific about your expectation and observation.
