The standard xterm doesn't have support for transparency. You need to install aterm, Eterm, or rxvt to get a transparent console window.

thanks for the help, i should have searched the forum.
but there is no need to get upset.

well u see this happens a LOT so it gets common users annoyed, like me, if i spent ages basicly writing a howto or even reading someone elses and see that someone can't even be arsed searching first, well u can see how annoying it is, it happes soooooo often as well, otherwize i wouldn't be arsed at all

Thanks for the reminder, viperlin!

I started doing searches at the following places in order of importance:

http://www.google.com/linux
http://www.linuxnewbie.org
http://www.linuxquestions.org

Also, with Slackware and possibly other distributions, I get the same HOWTO's available at http://www.tldp.org but right in my hard drive under /usr/doc.

man pages, README files, info entries, yadda, yadda, yadda!!!
