Xorg log

When using KWin desktop effects, I see temporary corruption in new
windows and menus.  It looks as if the memory is not being properly
cleared before it is drawn to the screen.

Running on Fedora 15 pre-Alpha:

(Verizon is too stupid to set the mime-type properly, so you'll have to
download with wget or somesuch.)

Does:
Option "ColorTiling" False"
in the device section of your xorg.conf fix the issue?  This may be a duplicate of bug 33929.  You might try the xserver patch on that bug.

Nope.  That option is already set.  (I did have that problem as well.)
