oh yes I was doing the righ thing from the start but the fact was all about my 3dlabs drivers they are kinda useless when it comes to konfabulator. won't see mouse clicks. and when I used xpopup same issue the popup could not see my mouse.

I had to brind down the hardware accel in diplay prop, it's fine now.

can someone tell me exactly what xpopup has to enable the alpha so I can tell 3dlabs support exactly what the drivers can't handle, thank you.
