Folks,

I'm a happy Awesome user, but i do miss my transparent windows from compiz days. To that end i have the following in my luarc:

awful.util.spawn_with_shell("xcompmgr -CcFf -t-5 -l-5 -r10.2 -o.55 -D3 -I-.015 -O-.03 &")

under awful.rules.rules i have:

                { rule = { class = "urxvt" },
      properties = { opacity = 0.8 } },

What i don't understand is that only the terminal with the background set to !URxvt*background: #3B3B3B is transparent and not the one set to URxvt*background: #3f3f3f

Does xcompmgr only make darker colors transparent?

I posted my lua.rc here: https://raw.github.com/gist/1726334/2cd8fb50315bacbafb841ceeef512dec1f90a5c2/rc.lua

Also, is there another compositing manager i can use with awesome? I don't think the compositing manager of compiz can be used by itself can it, and the cairo composite manager project looks dead.

Thanks,
