[Bug 604256] Re: All programs title bar gone 50% of the logins‏ due to cairo dock

 

I suppose you use "compiz-decorator". So if you launch 'compiz-decorator
--replace' or 'emerald --replace' when you have the bug, all is now ok?

But how Cairo-Dock can provoke a bug into another application where there isn't any interaction between them?
Personally, I think that it's just because there is a new application launched at startup . 'compiz-decorator' is maybe launched too soon (before the complete loading of Compiz).

So can you modify the command that you've added to launch Cairo-Dock at startup by something like this:
 $ sh -c "sleep 15 && cairo-dock -c"

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: New

Bug description:
2.1.3-10-lucid
Laptop: Hp-Compaq Presatio A965TU Intel centrino core 2 dou inside.
Ubuntu Lucid Lynix 10.04 (64 bit)
Desktop Manager: Gnome
Window Manager:Compiz
Used cairo dock with -c option i.e. without opengl
running bisigi themes and some themes from gnome art
 
Method:
50% of the time i login to my account there is not title bar to any program.
Title bar is one having min,max and closign buttons.
So i need to logout and login and problem soved.
 
When running with -o i.e. opengl i was facing the same problem with additional hang problem, so I decided not to use cairo dock with -o option.
I added cario dock to startup applications like this: cairo-dock -c

NOTE: This bug is not duplicate. 
Situation:
I have cairo-dock set at startup only in my this standard account. Above mentionoed problems occured only in this account due to cairo-dock.

I dont have this dock in my admin accoutn not even at startup and not either after. and I NEVER faced above mentioned problem there in admin account. I have compiz enabled there in admin acount but desktop effects to none.

This CLEARLY implied that the problem is due to cairo dock only and NOT due to compiz.
