Thanks for your reply. Here is the [Compositing] section of my
~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc :
[Compositing]
AnimationSpeed=2
Backend=XRender
CheckIsSafe=true
DisableChecks=false
Enabled=true
GLDirect=true
GLLegacy=false
GLMode=TFP
GLTextureFilter=1
GLVSync=true
HiddenPreviews=4
OpenGLIsUnsafe=false
UnredirectFullscreen=true
XRenderSmoothScale=false

I tried flipping various parameters before enabling OpenGL
compositing, but it still fails.
