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

 

I'm experiencing same problems listed above running Fedora 12 and Gnome.   My nvidia card in one of my laptops stops displaying the animated icons randomly and once I restart cairo-dock, it is back.    BUT, my other laptop with an ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400 never has shown the animated icons.    I've been tracking this case, but has anyone yet found a solution?

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.
