You need a recent version of Xephyr, with version 0.4 of the composite extenstion if I remember right. Ubuntu Gutsy should be alright. If you don't have access to a recent Xephyr you can disable Composite by starting adding -extension Composite to the Xephyr command line, home will revert to its non-composited behavior (but you will not be able to test transparency). > 2) Has anybody written a home plugin for Maemo 4.x and has published > the source? I have a simple example which shows how to draw a translucent applet. It's been in the (long) queue for our release approval in our internal machinary for quite some time, I'll push again tomorrow. There is also a statusbar plugin. > 3) Is there any better documentation/howto for home plugins then the > one in the wiki, because it somehow is not very complete?

Check http://maemo.org/api_refs/4.0/libhildondesktop/HildonDesktopHomeItem.html for the API reference on the widget you need to derive from.
