having the window manager paint the wallpaper is .. to be frank .. braindamage. i understand why compiz is doing this: no desktop shell out there is smart enough to keep up with ideas like "showing more than one virtual desktop / workspace / viewport at a time" we have a solution for this in plasma that is partly complete and will be finished in 4.2. however, due to other features in plasma which are in conflict with the idea of an externally painting wallpaper, plasma will not be offering a "no background" option at this time or in the foreseeable future. (btw, i have been talking with compiz developers about this issue.) Thanks by the reply, is good to hear that something better than a simply "workaround" (as I said) is being planned to future KDE 4 releases :-) |
