In cairo-dock 2.1.3-0beta1 , the switcher applet is displayed with regular OpenGL but it does not animate.
If i try indirect rendering , the applet is not displayed...

But even worse , is that the background problems have returned with OpenGL  :-(
Worse than earlier > Bug #408065 the background is having a constant black background :-(  [with a shadow ]
Seems the dock is being treated as a window.

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.
