I wanted to check on this to see if you had found anything or if the 
newer version of KDE was coming anytime this year to the ports tree... I 
tried restarting kwin without any luck:

last pid: 10315;  load averages:  0.58,  0.67,  0.58   up 30+21:11:27

As above, I very much am duplicating this issue with an Nvidia card.
