may be you are interested or somebody ...

openGL is not working on kde 4.8

but changing windows Manager to Metacity from System Settings => Default
Apps, then openGL IS there nice and fine

I can activate then or not the GL 2 Shaders, makes no
difference, both work

[Compositing]
AnimationSpeed=3
Backend=OpenGL
DisableChecks=false
Enabled=true
GLDirect=true
GLLegacy=true
GLTextureFilter=2
GLVSync=true
GraphicsSystem=native
HiddenPreviews=5
OpenGLIsUnsafe=false
UnredirectFullscreen=false
XRenderSmoothScale=false


so nothing wrong with driver or xorg, actually I run new xorg but also
the actual production version is giving same result, so seems something
wrong in KDE Windows Manager
