fdo Xserver is an alternative to xfree that can do real transparency. Screenie: http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/screenshots/raindrop-2003-11-17b.png Ebuilds: http://dev.gentoo.org/~spyderous/overlay-freedesktop/ Linkage: http://freedesktop.org/Software/xserver Right now it's pretty unstable and doesn't really work with nvidia cards. But it's chock full of eye candy if you don't mind the occasional segfault :) -- Ciaran McCreesh Mail: ciaranm at gentoo.org Web: http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm
