When I start up conky, everything looks fine and dandy. However, at seemingly random times conky will lose its transparency and have a white background which looks...well...awful. Sometimes it goes back to transparent at another seemingly random time, and sometimes it doesn't.
Here's my conkyrc.
Code:
# maintain spacing between certain elements
use_spacer no
# set to yes if you want conky to be forked in the background
background no
use_xft yes
# Xft font when Xft is enabled
xftfont Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-7
#xftfont Andale Mono-9
#xftfont Clean-8
#xftfont cubicfive10:pixelsize=8
#xftfont squaredance10:pixelsize=14
#xftfont swf!t_v02:pixelsize=10
# Text alpha when using Xft
xftalpha 1

# Use double buffering (reduces flicker, may not work for everyone)

# Minimum size of text area

# Gap between borders of screen and text

# Subtract file system buffers from used memory?
