Bug Description
Running Kubuntu 11.04 Natty Beta1
Sometimes when changing plasma theme, the panel theme refuses to update it self without a logout. Transparency effect on taskbar does not always work after changing a theme.
The blur effect does not work at all although it is checked and KDE does not give an incompatibility popup for this effect.
All these effects worked fine in Kubuntu 10.10 with KDE SC 4.6.1 PPA version. Desktop composition overall is less snappy in natty.
This bug is reproduced on the following graphic cards.
