Bug Description

I don't really have any detailed analysis at the moment, but from a pure user experience POV, KDE is extremely painful to use in Gutsy w/o compiz enabled. Redraws are taking forever and when
running multiple applications (konqueror, kterm, konversation, etc) this makes the system almost
unusable. When I run compiz, everything is OK, but since kde-window-decorator just dies when
I run compiz (see 129801, 145857), that's not a proper workaround either.

HW is an ATI X1600 (as reported via flgrxinfo) running the ATI drivers.

Same thing here with a Kubuntu Gutsy on a Compaq Presario V2610CA with an ATI Xpress 200M video card, with opensource or restricted driver.
