After digging around, I managed to port the C code to nearly equivalent Python
code. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like the C code. It still has artifacts.
I then tried different WM, Fluxbox. Out of my expectation, they both didn't
work well. I think they both couldn't have shape or something, I tried too many
things and didn't take notes.
Then I booted up with Gentoo 2011 Live DVD, which uses KDE. After enabled
Desktop Effects, they both work. But another surprise, the C code has slight
dark background, though it remain translucent. But the Python code works
perfectly.
I emerged compiz 0.8.6. Both work. And, key-mon works as well, setting opacity
does not create artifacts. With --no-press-fadeout, that works like a charm.
(though I found when window comes back for a keypress, it steals focus, a bug)
So far, I think compositing manager is really an issue here, but I am not so
sure.
I will be waiting for more feedback on this, before then, I am putting this at
the end of my ToDo list.
