Hi all,

I have read the manual, I've searched in google, I've tried differents
configuration, but I can't do that, then I've send this message to the list.
Please tell me solutions, I have read the manual.

About the discussion of is recommendable use transparent backgrounds...
maybe someone will have another opinion, but I want that, I have configured
other PC with ion3 months ago with the same configuration that I want now.
That PC had ubuntu edgy and works fine, it was easy to read text. I want the
same thing in the laptop that I'm using now, but I can't.

Someone know what's is the problem?
