Distorted images in KDE after getting 3D to work with ATI Radeon 9600XT

I believe it's KDE, but I would like a second opinion before I install GNOME so I don't wast my time.

Sax2 wouldn't run so I ran xf86config instead, then ran fglrxconfig again just so I could get a picture back when the xf86config failed. After rebooting, I got my xserver running again so I went to check the dmesg, and lo and behold, the AGP mod was in use indicating that 3D was back so I fglrxinfo to make sure and BLAMMO!: display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.

Though I don't know what the hell is gonna happen the next time I need to reboot :/ The really strange thing is that the XF86Config |
