Hi,<br>
<br>
I've switched to KDE4 and played with composite rendering. With<br>
last squeak dev images some fonts are not rendered: it seems to be<br>
interpreted as a transparent region by the composite manager (see<br>
screenshot). I've tested this on my two debian boxes.<br>
<br>
This problem is not present in sq3.9.1-7075dev08.07.1 image, so I<br>
suppose it's due to NiceFont integration ?<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
<br>
Maybe it occurs more often with nice fonts, but it actually is a<br>
combined VM/image problem.<br>
<br>
The VM prefers a 32 bit X visual (with alpha channel) over a 24 bit<br>
one. If a compositing window manager is used, the alpha channel is<br>
used for transparency, but the image generally does not care about the<br>
alpha channel in its frame buffer.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Does that mean there is some core location(s) where the alpha channel<br>
needs to be defaulting to full opacity but currently it is not?<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
Yes, that is where the transparent areas are under a compositing window manager. I also remember partly translucent menus in (old versions of) Croquet, and having to fix the alpha channel after taking a screenshot.<br><font color="#888888">

The olpc branch in the SVN repository has a fix for that, see<br>
