dunno about y'all, but i read the OP's use of "opaque" to mean a
window-manager-specific option of dragging a window while displaying
its contents vs. dragging a window as an outline, which seems a much
simpler explanation than all of this wacky translucency or
RENDER-related stuff. hopefully the OP will clear things up.
it would also be good to know which window manager we're talking about.
i second the recommendation of using the "nvidia" driver versus the
"nv" driver.
