I don't quite understand what you mean. If you start X with startx, you should put a line like: 'exec enlightenment' into your .xinitrc. > > I need a little guidance here to start playing with CVS, i just want > to hear from you guys, any set of "best practices" when the subject is > compiling and launching enlightenment from CVS with something like: > `startx -- :2 -depth 32` , startx -- :<any display number> should work fine. just take care you use a display you can actually switch to, makes things easier. or you can tell me before I spend too much > time on trying to find out the real trans thing, that it still doesn't > work yet.

My system is > running slackware 10.1, kernel 2.6.10, on P4, 1GB Ram, Real transparency is not supported in e17, because Raster the main e developer says real trans in X is currently not in a state which makes the work worthwhile, search the archives if you are interested in the details. It is planned for e18 (IIRC). But even without real transparency e17 is definitly awesome. Nothing comes close! > > Thanks in advance, and sorry for the brazillian-self-learned-english. No worries, I think most people here are not english native speakers and nobody worries about "proper" english :)
