All sort of ailments have been plaguing me, so I'm just now able to reply. I 
don't think I have an nVidia problem except for the weird artifact. John and 
Tejas hit it - I turned off "Show FPS" and that got rid of it. 

However, I was unable to run much of KDE all afternoon, and when I could, 
KMail was crashing every few moments, usually when I'd try to highlight a part 
of a message; it was also repeatedly refusing to display the preview pane and 
I would have to go into settings and uncheck/check that feature; plasma 
crashes every time I start - and on and on... I'm writing this message with 
KMail but in Gnome, and I'm not experiencing any of the aforementioned 
problems...
