Window transparency fails on Linux #1667

Description

@T-baby

I am experiencing a persistent issue where window transparency fails to render correctly on specific Linux configurations. Despite setting transparent: true in tauri.conf.json and applying background-color: transparent via CSS.

Interestingly, this issue does not occur on a different machine with an Integrated GPU and a much newer kernel (6.14).

Environment Details (Problematic Machine)

  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3090 using proprietary drivers.
  • Kernel Version: 6.8.0-100-generic.
  • WebKitGTK Version: 2.50.4.
  • Display Server: X11.
  • Tauri Version: 2.9.5

Reference Environment (Working Machine)

  • GPU: Integrated GPU (Intel).
  • Kernel Version: 6.14.0-37-generic.
  • WebKitGTK Version: 2.50.3.
  • Display Server: X11.
