Remember that problem I had, with unrelieved black in pop-up windows or 
un-minimized applications?

Well, if you remember: on Saturday, April 27, the kernel development 
team pushed a new version of the kernel at that time. They've pushed one 
since then, so I am using version 3.8.9.200.

Since the version immediately before that, I have not had one single 
problem with pop-up windows going black (or with KDE windows going 
transparent, which was a change in KDE's behavior from all-black to 
transparent several months ago).

This convinces me that the kernel, or any of a number of packages that 
accompany it, was at fault--and somewhere in the development process, 
something the kernel development team did for the last version before 
the current one, solved the problem with unrelieved black windows when 
running on Intel processors.

Naturally if this happens again, I'll be back. But now I know where to 
file the bug against: the kernel, or one of its associated packages.
