Just tried changing themes, and fine-tuning, going from very-high CPU
to high CPU.
No joy. Not only that, but the black popup/new window effect
manifested itself almost at once after I made the change.
To clear this, I had to log out, then log back in. Naturally I reset
everything to default:
Theme: Oxygen
Graphics effect: Low screen resolution and very high CPU.
As it happened, I took in another update from Firefox and Thunderbird.
But the problem affects all applications, and even native KDE
functions like Kickstart, and all notifications.

Hello!
Sorry for my lateness but I was making some experiments with
KDE. It happens to me too, after 2 or 3 hours of use. Not only pop ups
pr message boxes are black, but every window. Plasma and wallpaper are
fine.
I'm using KDE 4.9, Fedora 18 64-bits, and as somebody say, may be it
is related with Intel chipset, because my netbook is an Intel one.
Is there a bug filed for this issue?
Cheers, thanks
Lailah
