Oh KDE4 Fatality!!!

Sun Jan 11, 2009 8:55 pm
I did a right click to change my old Red Alert wallpapper to the newest Super-Mario wallpaper. I'm clicked to change color in Desktop Settings (the new wallpaper isn't fits enough, so I'm changed the color here to black).
Here come the Fatality - are you ever seen Fatality? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su3-4lXBCiI
So, after changing the wallpaper and this color my rclick menu options are slowly disappeared with a nice rollower-effect, in my Desktop Option I have just lines like this: _.
What happened?!

I couldn't seem to reproduce this issue. Could you supply a link to the Image you tried to use as your Desktop Background? Could you also supply the exact HTML value of your desktop background? ( Available from the Colour selector )

Also are you using any form of 3D effects?

No 3D effects used.
The image is also black with 4 mushrooms :) I'm still searching for the link... is this important? :)
The selected color was black.

All I need is a copy of the image to test locally in case the image might have damage or dimensions which caused the problem. I tried with a Black coloured background and was unable to reproduce with a standard 1024x768 image.

Thanks for the link. I tried to reproduce the issue but was unable. It is likely that this was either fixed in KDE 4.2, or was a one off event. You could try and reproduce, and if you can, it was likely solved in 4.2. ( can't be underlying libraries, we are both running openSUSE )

No it isn't solved in 4.2. Happened again. Do not ask how to reproduce - I can't. :)

It occurs when I'm trying to set a wallpaper from the predefined collection - from the combo box. If I select one from the File-dialog then it's changing without any problem.

If this bug doesn't exist already, could you please file one know that you know how to precisely reproduce?
