This does not look like xfce4-terminal or gnome-terminal (the menus are
not called like this, in xfce4-terminal 0.4.2 it's:
File/Edit/View/Terminal/Go/Help and in gnome-terminal 2.28.2 it's
File/Edit/View/Terminal/Help). What is it then?
I'm not sure compositing works in qemu anyway, so the qemu test is not
really helpful.
I don't know your setup exactly, it's too messy, but basically what I
need you to test and confirm is that:
* compositing is enabled in Xorg (check in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, check
it's not disabled in /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
* compositing is enabled in Xfce, using xfwm (not interested in GNOME as
I'm not sure metacity supports compositing etc. I can't say for sure).
This is done in the ?window manager tweaks? settings.
* transparency is indeed working (like, title bar transparency, inactive
window transparency etc. is confirmed working)
* nor xfce4-terminal nor gnome-terminal show real transparency
Can you do that for me?
