Better Compositor for Xfce!

49490180_b62cefddd6_m.jpg

See here http://www.aqd.ath.cx/

- Make all windows transparent, and background windows are less opaque than the frontend one.
- Titlebar and window edges get more transparency.
- Remove overlapped part from shadow.

Tested with nVidia driver 1.0.7676 and xorg cvs snapshot 2005/9/25, GeForce FX5500

Binary here: http://www.aqd.ath.cx/stuff-linux/ (built with gtk 2.8 )

PS: The xfwm snapshot I use has been removed from the official web-site. You would have to merge the patch manually if you want it with recent svn snapshots.

It's as fast as a desktop with shadow but no transparency.

However, without nvidia driver and RenderAccel it would be too damned slow to be usable.
