60 Ah, I remember that one, but no, there wasn't anything related to black
61 screens.
62 I believe it was some internal problem with nvidia drivers and plasma-5
63 3D effects. This can explain the presence of mouse pointer and menus
64 flickering-through the black screen.
65
66 I'll probably repeat that a while later when I have more time. That
67 first post of mine was too emotional, I like to be on the bleeding edge,
68 even despite such faux pas. Thanks everyone for your replies!
