Re: [Bug 491251] Re: Switcher applet not displayed with OpenGL

 

just to say that Switcher doesn't use the pbuffers, but a mere copy of the
cairo surface to the opengl texture.
hope this can help the drivers devs ^_^

Bug description:
Using 2.1.1-3-1ubuntu2~karmic from the stable ppa , and Kernel 2.6.32-6 from the Lucid repos[since KMS and OpenGL works better with this kernel].

When running cairo-dock in the openGL mode , the switcher applet is not displayed [attached screenshot]

But the applet works fine the desktop numbers are displayed but the only problem is that the switcher is not displayed.
When i use the non-OpenGL version , there is no such problem.
