I updated to Ubuntu 10.10, from 10.04, and then I updated using the ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports repository. Following which I noticed the unresponsive switch from the, "present windows" view to a window. The switch would eventually take place, but the switch could take two or three minutes. I couldn't stand the lag, and I disable, "Improved window management" under, "Common Settings" in "Configure desktop effects" of the, "System Settings" for KDE. Although, I'm very sad to give-up this effect. It was the only effect I liked to use for switching between windows on my Netbook - a Eee PC 1005-HA.
Some searches gave a few leads. but these results did not give a quick fix to keep the awesome effect.
