This is my error when i try kwin_x11 --replace :
QXcbIntegration: Cannot create platform OpenGL context, neither GLX nor EGL are enabled
QXcbIntegration: Cannot create platform OpenGL context, neither GLX nor EGL are enabled

Did you reboot after update?

Yes sir

Using the Nouveau driver I gave up on kwin compositing and effects. I installed the simple but pretty cool xcompmgr instead. Turn off compositor at boot. Add xcompmgr to auto start. :blush:
