Recently, I brought up a topic about white boarders being drawn instead of shadows in Gnome-Window-Decorator. A patch was made up by gandalfn to correct this by making 32 pixel shadows 33 pixels, however the patch was not committed because it was a workaround.
This is a huge functional annoyance to us intel users and needs to be cured. There are two soultions I can think of: 1 Get in contact with the X.org i810 team and ask them to correct the issue in their driver which does not allow 32 pixel shadows to be drawn. 2 Allow the user to specify in GConf or something the depth of the shadows that GWD creates. Emerald from Beryl currently allows this so I don't understand why it would be too hard to implement. Yes I *know* #2 is more like a workaround but at least it allows the user to specify how big they want this shadows to be. (Please dont confuse this with X-offset adn Y-Offset). Also, could we please stick the topic this time and make sure that another problem does not get fixed instead of mine.
