--- Begin Message ---Hi Piotr, On Tue, Sep 25, 2012 at 3:08 PM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > This problem on Debian Wheezy with XFCE4.8 is solved now! > > xfwm compositor must be on: > > Settings -> Settings Manager -> Window Manager Tweaks ->Compositor-> Enable > Display Compositing It's already a known fact that compositing is required for transparency in conky, and since AFAIK nothing related to transparency was changed in between conky 1.8.1 -> 1.9.0, this is more of a configuration issue than an actual bug in conky. Hence, closing this bug report. Regardless, I'm glad to know that you've got conky the way you want it on Xfce! Regards, Vincent
