           Summary: Plasma panel widgets flicker/flash at random
                    times..sometimes dissapear until moused over.
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: joe.crollard gmail com


Version:            (using KDE 4.0.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

As the title states, many of the added widgets flicker on the plasma panel. Sometimes they simply flash, sometimes they disappear all together. This is usually fixable by hovering my mouse pointer over the panel or clicking on a taskbar button.  Often times the clock on the panel also becomes distorted, showing only one number on the far right.  Hovering over that with my mouse usually fixes the issue..although not always. If it doesn't, usually clicking the clock fixes things.

This doesn't happen always, just on occasion, often when the panel has several windows on the taskbar.

I'm not sure what to include for this bug.  I use an NVIDIA Geforce card, with the newest driver installed on SuSE 10.3.

I hope this helps.
