The game window is transparent because the default override-redirect window opacity kicks in. You can set the opacity of all override-redirect windows (game window, but also app menus, pop-ups, etc.) to 100% with: $ eesh set compmgr.override_redirect.opacity 100 To get this propagated to existing windows it is required to restart the composite manager, e.g. with $ eesh cm stop $ eesh cm start If you only want to disable transparency for the game window you can copy /usr/share/e16/config/matches.cfg to ~/.e16/matches.cfg and add the line: Title Enemy*Territory Winop opacity 100:fade off:shadow off After restarting e16 this should take effect and make your game window opaque (and disable fading and shadows). If you actually do want to disable the composite manager (e.g. for speed) you could add a keybinding (something like "KeyDown CA e cm stop" in bindings.cfg. Ctrl-Alt-e should then disable the CM. Another simple (although maybe a bit hackish) solution is to add "eesh cm stop" in your game startup script before starting the game. The one thing that just can't be done (unless the feature is added) is to make e16 perform some arbitrary action when particular apps start :( /Kim ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
