http://crunchbang.org – I got pretty little information about this issue so far. You didn't even tell me the version of your tint2. I fully understand you may be tight in time when replying. However, I would expect you to read my all my replies carefully and provide all, or at least most of, the information I've asked for, before you post next reply.I've edited my previous reply for a few times, and please make sure you have read the "update" sections of it.A compositor doesn't operate on specific parts of a window, so in general, a problem in compositor will exhibit as corruptions of a (HowTos)

I've managed to disable compton from drawing shadows on tint2 by adding this to compton.conf .shadow-exclude = [ "tint2" ];Problem is if I reboot the shadows show up again until I restart compton, I am not sure but I think this might be due to compton being initialized before tint2 ? How should I work around this ?

But there is no simple, standalone opengl compositor. There's just Compiz, Kwin and Mutter, which are combined compositor/window manager.

Hi.I've just installed crunchbang and I'm really impressed with it. I'm definitely moving to this distro.Everything is ok but just one issue.If I enable the compositor in xfce then the iceweasel menus aren't able to show which option is selected when the mouse hovers, also no submenu appears when the mouse hovers.

Somehow I'm not able to read the trailing \n sign into the REPLY variable. Under any circumstances I want to avoid a blank line that results from the \n being echoed by read but echo one in case of another character. Given:

declare -l REPLY read >&2 -r -N 1 -p "Acknowledged?
