Re: [Bug 645141] Re: Cairo-Dock Disapears or Shuts Down When Trying to Veiw File System Folders Under Compiz (Open-GL)

 

The Dock itself is now buggy and slow to load. It actually has crashed a
couple of times in what appears to be pre-cache at start-up.  It works
great if it get past this stage, with improvements in speed, but this
may be the applications themselves. All in all, there have been no
killer bugs so far in the distribution, which I must say (with devs), in
the past has not been the case. I will keep working with it, and let you
know if there is anything worth noting in the future.
