Description Craig Pemberton 2005-10-17 05:40:02 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
In the windows port, gaim has transparency options.  Yet in linux gaim is stuck opaque.  It would be great if gaim could be transparent on both platforms.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.run gaim
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  Gaim had an opaque white background.

Expected Results:  I turned on transparency and it was really hot.

Fedora will not add such functionality to gaim.  You need to convince upstream.
