On a virtual console???
Good luck and if you succeed, please let me know!
> other VTs
Ah, you mean transparant terminal emulators...
> Though i've heard its transparency is more of a dirty hack
Yep, same goes for its xpm backgrounds.
> Does anyone use a transparent VT sucessfully in BB?
Has nothing to do with BB, but ok.
I'm using aterm.
A command like aterm -tr -trsb -fg white -bg black should work fine.
Good luck,
Alphons
