[Bug 224889] Re: Povray preview windows appear transparent

[Julian Fietkau]

The issue can also be worked around from the compiz side by configuring
compiz to display POV-Ray windows without an alpha channel. This can be
done through the "Window rules" plugin, which has a "No ARGB visuals"
rule. Setting this to "class=Povray" will cause the POV-Ray preview
windows to be rendered without transparency. More info:
http://wiki.compiz.org/WindowMatching#Window_Rules

This is a bit more convenient because it's a one time setting and will
save you the hassle of specifying the visual type every time you launch
POV-Ray.

As draimus said, apparently this bug has been fixed in current POV-Ray
3.7.0 builds, see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155289
