Conky and kde4.3

Hi all,

I have a problem with conky.

It draws a black background instead of using pseudo-transparency. I ofc tried to achieve this with feh but to no avail.
All the instructions here failed:
Conky Hardcore! » Conky transparency with KDE (3 and 4)

Any help with the issue?

here’s my conky:

# set to yes if you want Conky to be forked in the background
background yes

#avoid flicker 
double_buffer yes 

#own window to run simultanious 2 or more conkys
own_window yes
own_window_type override
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_hints undecorate,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,below,skip_shadow

#borders
draw_borders no
border_margin 0

#shades
draw_shades no

#position
gap_x 0
gap_y 0
alignment top_left
 
#behaviour 
update_interval 1 
 
#colour 
default_color  FFFFFF
#default_shade_color 000000 
own_window_colour 000000

#font 
use_xft yes 
xftfont Segoe UI:size=9 

# Force UTF8? note that UTF8 support required XFT 
override_utf8_locale yes 

#to prevent window from moving 
use_spacer yes
minimum_size 500 5

#mpd
#mpd_host localhost
