--- Comment #3 from Lukas Sabota <lu...@lwsabota.com> ---
I use both kwin_x11 as just a window manager and I also use it as a window
manager and compositing manager:  because they both seem to work exceptionally
well.  I was pleasantly surprised to see how well the compositing effects (such
as the META+W overview / virtual desktop animations / transparency effects)
worked with kwin_x11 in standalone mode.  There did appear to be some very
minor artifacting during the transition to overview mode, but it didn't prevent
overview from functioning at all.
Running kwin_x11 will exhibit this black background behavior both when
compositing is enabled, and it's when disabled.

I also couldn't seem to find where in kwin source code that the root window
gets painted black.  I've been doing some trial and error with gdb when I've
had a spare chance, but haven't yet been able to dedicate much time to
investigating.
