My last build of emacs from source checked out of the trunk on

can't say how old this is exactly.

Starting from emacs -Q I do (set-frame-parameter (selected-frame) 'alpha
'(90 90)), which should(?) work, but doesn't anymore.


Works for me (emacs trunk rev 105334)

Note this feature depends on compositing being active: all it does is set the relevant x11 window property to request the compositing manager render the window with some alpha. So it has no effect if you've, say, turned off compositing (sometimes called "desktop effects") in a window manager capable of it (say XFCE), or have switched to a low-requirements desktop environment / window-manager that doesn't do it at all.
