Created attachment 404453 [details] screenshot Description of problem: At some point in the past week or so, my Terminator became transparent, and I am unable to revert this change. Attached is a screenshot that shows the transparent terminator, debugging output that says it finds the value enabled in gconf, and then gconf-editor and gnome-terminal showing that it is, in fact, not enabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): terminator-0.14-3.fc13.noarch gnome-terminal-2.29.92-1.fc13.x86_64

Actually, this doesn't look like a transparent background... it looks like it is using a solid background with the default wallpaper. I can't seem to figure out how to turn it into a white background again.
Hi Luke, your attached debugging output actually says that background_type was configured as solid. It also says, the background_image was unset. That makes the issue indeed a bit curious. I'd suggest you to work around this issue by creating a ~/.config/terminator/config file. You can set values for background_color, background_type and background_image there. See 'man terminator_config' for more information about that. Of course this may not be the solution for your issue, but is rather a workaround. I assume this has to be fixed upstream. I think it isn't necessary to report that anyway, since there already is a new upstream release (0.91) which I didn't pushed to Fedora yet because the configuration file format has changed with the release (and there were many bugs reported the first days after the release). I will push it to Rawhide and F13 next days, though. I don't think it's a good idea to push it to older Fedora releases because of the mentioned configuration file changes, but seems that won't affect you. :)
I created a config file by hand and it was parsed by terminator as: ConfigFile settings are: {'enable_real_transparency': False, 'background_color': '#000000', 'background_type': 'solid'} However, I'm still hitting the same issue. Attached is the debugging output. I'd be glad to test the latest bits once they hit F13.
