Interesting, thanks for taking the time to test, it's really helpful! I will have a look at that then. What I will probably do is just set a default background color when setting the background wallpaper fails (currently, when there is no background wallpaper, it just sets a default background color). > Unagi opacity still feels a bit to slow for everyday usage.

Yes, I agree with you, it's still a bit slow even if xcompmgr seems as slow as unagi as far as I have tested (have you already tested xcompmgr on your machine to compare BTW?), it's still not good enough compared to other compositing window manager such as kwin with XRender. Therefore, my plan is to improve performances more for the next release and to have the Expose working for the release after. Then, I plan to implement other plugins such as application switcher. If you have any idea of useful plugins, please feel free to suggest ;-). Thanks for your comments! Regards, -- Arnaud Fontaine
