After removing this library with its associated .a and .la files, and rebuilding some ports that use this library, the update finally worked ok. Even transparency and drop shadows seem to work ok with the i810 driver. There's one thing broken though: After the upgrade, panel plugins fail to display correct values. The battery monitor claims the battery of my laptop is at 0%. The network monitor plugin also sees the traffic at 0 kbyte/s no matter what I do. The volume plugin displays a value according to where I click in the plugin, but this does not translate to a higher or lower volume. Inversely, if I set the volume using xfce4-mixer, the value is not correctly displayed by the plugin. Did you notice similar problems? Did I miss to upgrade a package that all plugins rely on? regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka markus.hoenicka@cats.de (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de
