kdemod 4.1 effects with Intel X3100 GM965/GL960, it is posible?

I have a dell vostro 1710, and I am trying to use the basic effects of kde 4.1...
my video is an Intel X3100 GM965/GL960

when I swith on the effects I just see the shadows of opened windows... "just" the shadows, all the rest black...

if I miss the cancel button I have to change the composite to false in console...

any idea? someone is using this video card with kde 4.1 and effects?

this is my "current" xorg.conf:

Re: kdemod 4.1 effects with Intel X3100 GM965/GL960, it is posible?

I have the same chipset/gfx and mine is working fine.  The relevant sections of my xorg.conf are:

   Section "Module"
        Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension
        SubSection  "extmod"                         
          Option    "omit xfree86-dga"               
        EndSubSection                                
        Load        "freetype"                       
        #Load        "speedo"                        
        Load        "GLcore"                         
        Load        "glx"                            
        Load        "record"                         
        Load        "bitmap"                         
        Load        "dri"                            
        Load        "int10"                          
        Load        "vbe"                            
        Load        "xtrap"                          
    EndSection

    Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Intel GMA X3100"
        Driver      "intel"          
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"      
        Option      "MonitorLayout" "LCD,VGA"
        Option      "DevicePresence" "true"  
        Screen      0                        
    EndSection   

    Section "DRI"
        Mode        0666
    EndSection

    Section "Extensions"
        Option      "Composite"     "Enable"
        Option      "RENDER"        "Enable"
    EndSection

It would also be useful to check and make sure your xorg and intel drivers are up to date.

thanks honahursey, I tried it but nothing... the same behavior (all black, just showing the shadows...)

I have the same video card (and the same problems as you do), and I have a feeling that this is simply a bug in KDE, as I have no problems running compiz on the machine.

same here... can't stand this bug anymore...
desktop effects worked perfect with kubuntu intrepid
this is certain an archlinux bug.

also tried the xorg.conf from kubuntu which didn't help
