           Summary: Real transparent background (Xcomposite)
           Product: konsole
           Version: 1.6
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: holster iki fi


Version:           1.6 (using KDE 3.5 (RC1), Kubuntu Package 4:3.5-rc1-0ubuntu0breezy1 )
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-9-686

Is it (yet) possible to make konsole have real transparent background using Xcomposite instead of current pseudo-transparency? (i.e. grabbed desktop background)

Quite few graphics cards currently support Xcomposite properly, but it's always possible to fall-back to pseudo-transparency if Xcomposite is not enabled.
