Pekwm and xcompmgr Problem on Arch.

Hi... first.. sorry for my english, i'm ITA.. qualcuno qui?

Well.. I've a problem with Pekwm and xcompmgr..on Archlinux

last stable versions of both..

i guess the main problem could be with Themes coz..
the only theme I could use with xcompmgr is Elegant Brit..

the problem is: If I use any them but elegant brit.. with xcompmgr on..
when I rollup a window, I get artfacts on the desktop.
I get the window rolled up.. but I've his image still on the desktop.. like a sticky..

With the theme Elegant Brit.. pekwm work well..

I've tried other WM
Openbox work well..
xfce same..

Can you help me? if possible..
Thanks in advance.. bye

Re: Pekwm and xcompmgr Problem on Arch.

I dont use pekwm but have tried it a few times.
Just so you know i have the same problem, ive only found a few themes that xcompmgr works with.
If i used pekwm i would try to find out whats different in those themes that do work and make the changes in the theme i wanted to use.
I never really looked into it but the themes that i know work are jello zenner and elegant brit.
