[SOLVED] urxvtd and transparency

Hello everyone,

I used to have a nice transparent urxvt, but since I started using the deamonised version, my windows are opaque. Maybe something else has changed coincidentally, but I really cannot tell what.

My .Xresources (mostly copied from the arch wiki):

! borderless and no scrollbar
    URxvt*scrollBar_right: false
    URxvt*scrollBar: false
    URxvt*borderLess: false

    ! teh transparency stuff
    URxvt.depth: 32
    URxvt.background: rgba:1111/1111/1111/dddd
    ! geometry and font
    URxvt*geometry: 84×24
    URxvt*font: 9x15bold

    ! change default colors
    URxvt*background: #000000
    URxvt*foreground: #A8A8A8
    URxvt*color0: #000000
    URxvt*color1: #A80000
    URxvt*color2: #00A800
    URxvt*color3: #A85400
    URxvt*color4: #0000A8
    URxvt*color5: #A800A8
    URxvt*color6: #00A8A8
    URxvt*color7: #A8A8A8
    URxvt*color8: #545054
    URxvt*color9: #F85450
    URxvt*color10: #50FC50
    URxvt*color11: #F2FC50
    URxvt*color12: #5054F8
    URxvt*color13: #F854F8
    URxvt*color14: #50FCF8
    URxvt*color15: #F8FCF8 
    
    ! open uzbl
    URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,matcher
    URxvt.urlLauncher: /usr/bin/uzbl-browser
    URxvt.matcher.button: 1

My openbox autostart:

export DE=gnome
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
udiskie &
urxvtd -q -o -f &
pytyle &
feh --bg-fill /path/to/picture.jpg &
cairo-compmgr &
conky &

Has anyone experienced this? Any advice?

Thanks,
Manolo

Re: [SOLVED] urxvtd and transparency

The latest pacman -Syu has solved this? I'd like to have more insight on what's happened. But, hey, newbie corner...
