XTerm doesn't support transparency (my only gripe about it). With Konsole, you should only need to set up a transparent background in the schema you are using; and voila. In other terminals derived from rxvt, such as aterm and rxvt-unicode: I believe -tr/+tr toggles the setting. Gnome-Terminal should also be capable of it, some where..... Everything based on VTE also should support it I think.


I would suggest x11/rxvt-unicode (urxvt) or x11/Terminal if you don't want Konsole or Gnome-Terminal.
