Re: [Bug 1436553] Re: Transparent windows render black with Gtk3.16 and compiz

 

Might have been the client-frame-api branch that didn't build last
summer against 0.9.12.1 but I think I tried everything,but as I said
with too little knowledge of Compiz internals to really know what I was
doing. total trial and error and I simply kept what ended up working.
