Description Nicolas L. 2008-01-14 23:49:37 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Mandriva Bugreport : http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=36344

there is an option for selecting background transparency in the konsole, yet
changing it does not do anything. I have compiz working on this set up but both
with compiz enabled and disabled (using kwin4) the transparency doesnt work


Steps to Reproduce:
1. try moving the slider for changing transparency and apply (edit current
profile->appearance->edit) , no change 
2.
3.


the problem can be workaround by starting konsole with the following switch:
--enable-transparency
Comment 1 Robert Knight 2008-01-15 00:24:07 UTC
Hi,

This switch was added because there were visual glitches on NVidia systems when running on a composited desktop if transparency was enabled automatically.  I'm told that there have been improvements with the latest NVidia drivers so hopefully I can enable transparency support by default in an upcoming 4.0.x release.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

No, no change in the branch or trunk yet.
