The 2 updates of kdelibs today don't work with compositing.
This morning I updated and when I rebooted later on in the day, my desktop froze up and not even keyboard responses worked. I had no option but to alt- sysrq.
Then I booted again and updated and got a second kdelibs today, namely kdelibs-4.6.4-5.fc15.x86_64. Again, the same problem (after reboot). Desktop frozen, no recourse but alt-sysrq.
I booted into multi-user.target and manually edited kwinrc to disable compositing. Again I rebooted, and now I have a working desktop, but without desktop effects.

Not charmed here. Was until these updates.
xorg-x11-drv-intel INTEL X3000 (Chipset 965G) KInfoCentre reports it as: 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller
Oh, hold on a minute, before I start pointing fingers!
There was a mesa update yesterday on updates-testing. I have a hunch...
Does anyone know how I can painlessly downgrade to the previous version of mesa?

ok, nothing like man.
yum --enablerepo=updates-testing downgrade mesa*
So, I re-enabled desktop effects and all appears to be fine.
I will see if I can give some bad karma in bodhi to yesterday's mesa.
