I installed the Advanced desktop as per Wiki.
I then installed Compiz - as per http://technowizah.com/2006/10/debian-h … ompiz.html
So now compiz is working impressively (I just wanted to show off the eeePC) but transparency is not working correctly (setting a window transparent just makes it go dark) - most annoying is that all windows seem to have a transparent border (maybe shadow) that appears black - so I'd like to turn it off.Any idea how to configure compiz in this environment? The config plugin seems to be designed for Gnome and I can't find how to launch it.

ok, here's some follow-up info:video will generally not work with compiz, so here's what to do to revert back to the default windows manager if needed:go to your console, make sure you're in root, and type:kwin --replacethat's it, should be good to goTo revert to compiz just type:compiz --replaceok, so that makes one issue tolerable - next -> window size is too long, and locked from dragging above top edge:get the gconf editor: **Note i've added the debian reposis' ala. the wiki, and enabled pinning as shownsudo apt-get install gconf-editorlet it finish, then type in:gconf-editor &go through the logical progression (apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options)scroll to the shortcut for maximize vertically and change from Disabled to:F10now this should take effect immediately, so alt+F10 to bring the windows to sizeok...... its now 4am and i have class in 5 hours..... more to come - from me and hopefully others!!!Please let me know of any results you have - similar or otherwise
