18 Probably both are caused by the same thing, X likes rounded corners as much as
19 any other corners. It is up to the wm that to do with them. Most applications
20 can deal with the xshape extension ok.

22 So, your problem is, most likely, to be caused by the lack of such extension.
23 Check your xorg.conf, and make sure you have this line on it, and it is not
24 commented out.
