I run handles that for all windows. I did note that the font

seemed to work.
I'm still lost here. I don't see any bling at all. I even tried a new profile.
Nothing.
Exactly what is the Trinity compositor supposed to do?
Window transparency/translucency in applications that don't otherwise support
it. Window drop shadows. A few fade-in fade-out effects. It's similar to any
other basic compositor (like the one XFCE uses).
Unless R14 has moved them, the settings should be in
Control Center -> Desktop -> Window Behavior -> Translucency
It's functional for me, in 3.5.13 inside VirtualBox (and with none of the flakiness
that has always plagued KDE3's compositor).
I have the Trinity composition manager enabled.
I'm not
seeing any eye candy effects. I have just about everything
checked/enabled.
Is there something else I need to do to see these
effects?
I do not have any special compiz package installed.
This is on a physical machine using the proprietary
Nvidia drivers and not a
virtual machine.
