I recently compiled and installed PyMol on Arch Linux (seeĀ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47323). When I look at something I pulled from the pdb, it appears somewhat transparent. For example, in the screenshot linked below, the heme and the molecule behind it are somewhat transparent. When I rotate it is impossible to tell which one is on top of the other. I do not have any 3D capabilities on this system. Glad to provide any additional details. Some output is attached here.
