[Bug 416294] Re: VLC crashes if cairo-dock is installed in karmic alpha 4

 

A similar bug affects video playback in the kdenlive video editor-I just
filed this report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo-dock/+bug/729970

Fixing vlc, smplayer, kdenlive, etc to deal with this will work but is
the slow, difficult way. It will ultimately need to be fixed either in
QT where the but is said to originate or in cairo-dock where it is being
invoked. Otherwise every developer of applications using qt will have to
test them with cairo-dock and debug this.
