Hello,
  If you have EXA enabled in your xorg.conf and KDE4 seems sluggish on F9 
recently, please note that you will need the following patch to xorg-x11-
server-1.5.0 packages:
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=b4762c0245ed2966606171cf27f40aa745fdc76e
The patch also fixes use of SHM for compositing on ATI R5xx cards. There is 
still some slowdown compared to xserver 1.4.1, but the reasons for that are 
still unclear.

Regards,
Ravi
