No desktop effects. My video card is Radeon 9000, using Open Source "radeon" driver.

I have figured it out though. Through semi-random changing of driver options, I have discovered that I need to set AccelMethod to EXA (the default is XAA). The folderview now renders correctly (although rendering performance does not seem to have been improved). This option is marked as possibly unstable in the man page. It also causes KDE3 kuickshow to render garbage.

As this driver is somewhat common, this may be a candidate entry for a FAQ.
