[urxvt] Shading option gives errors

Hi all,

In the past I used aterm but now I want to try urxvt. One of the things I like about aterm is the the transparency and shading to make it more readable. This all works fine with aterm but urxvt freaks out:

$ urxvt -tr
Works fine. Completel transparent background. When I try to enable shading:

$ urxvt -tr -sh 10

urxvt: An X Error occured, trying to continue after report.
urxvt: X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
urxvt: Major opcode of failed request:  53
urxvt: (which is X_CreatePixmap)
urxvt: Value in failed request:  0x20
urxvt: Serial number of failed request:  192

I am currently running urxvt through tightvnc, but aterm works well with both transparency and shading so I doubt that is the problem.

Re: [urxvt] Shading option gives errors

This only happens when running urxvt through tightvnc. Works fine on the local desktop, still strange though
