[Bug 1181165] Re: bold black background in low-bottom of dock

 

Ok thank you,

Can you check that you're using Compiz? E.g. by launching this command from a terminal which should print something if Compiz is running:
   $ ps aux | grep "[c]ompiz"

If Compiz is running, can you give us more details about your video cards and your video drivers?
   $ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
   $ lspci | grep VGA

And is it better without the OpenGL backend?
   $ cairo-dock -c

Or with the default theme?
   $ cairo-dock -d ~/cd-tmp

If you're not using Compiz, check if it's possible to use it or enable the composite manager (if it's metacity: ): 
   $ gsettings set org.gnome.metacity compositing-manager true

Bug description:

  hello, don't know if this is a bug of weekly-build of cairo-dock (compiz with icon-fusion installed)
  in ubuntu 12.10 resp. pearlinux 7.0.1 or if this is because of window-manager in gnome.

  there is a bold black balcony in bottom-dock --- how can I remove this
  bold black balcony ???

  in first installation of pearlinux 7.0.0 it was no problem - the solution was there like this :
  save the current dock configuration in "appearance"-"themes" with a file-name then 'apply'
  then de-install compiz and de-install cairo-dock,
  then re-install compiz and add the just-saved theme again,
  and re-install cairo-dock

  then bold black balcony disappeared.

  but now with current weekly-build of cairo-dock 3.2.x this solution
  does not work any more ???

  how to solve this ?
