Ubuntu :: 11.04 Dock Not Retreating
May 8, 2011
I had this problem before and figured out that when I drag an item from a software and it activates the dock by touching the left side of the screen the dock wouldn't hide until I close the software that I dragged the item from. Now it is just happening with no explanation! Dock doesn't retreat at all!!!! I have to restart my computer every time it happens...
Come on Ubuntu developers, you guys shouldn't have release a version like that! Now is too late, I have upgraded my system from the 10.10 and just can't get it back without formatting. The "Ubuntu Classic" is also messed up, lots of features doesn't work properly as they used to do in 10.10. I am not aware of the reason which why gnome is gone and now we have this unity. In my opinion it is WAY WORST than gnome (and gnome wasn't that good)...

Although it would resemble the Unity desktop that some of us here may have run away from, is it possible to set the left-hand-side dock to remain on screen, possibly only sliding off when a program window needs it to?

I'm looking for a way to get a Mac OS X style dock on Xubuntu, I tried cairo and it was ok but I just got a black border around the dock which was annoying. And I tried looking up how to fix it and most places recommend turning on compositing which I had already had on in xfce. I'm not necessarily looking for animated stuff, just an icon based dock like that.

I installed the new ubuntu with unity. I then used compizconfig to edit some stuff. I wanted the launcher to be in the bottom and always show.
However, after I did this i ended up with:
how to fix this? I don't know how to open a terminal, a webpage since I don't have a dock or launcher. I'm using ubuntu through classic now.

OS: Ubuntu Minimal ( OpenSSH, Samba )For some reason my Blacx Duet sata dock is not getting recognized and I am not sure what I am missing but it seems to work when I connect it to a full ubuntu install that is in a VM.Anyone know if something needs to be installed for it to work properly... regular flash drives work perfectly fine.

I have recently installed Ubuntu to my USB and think it is brilliant how you can save changes and even install software! However I really want to install the Avant Window Navigator but it says that it is not available in the current data. I tried sudo apt-get update but it still doesn't work! Is there a way round this as I can install other software?

I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with Cairo-Dock and having a problem with the GMenu add on. I have GMenu set to show the application Icons, but that feature does not work. GMenu is coming up with a list of my applications without the Icons. Any suggestion on how to fix that?

Is there a way to add the me menu to the cairo dock or is it something that I would have to wait for an applet to be made to do this?

In cairo-dock when I hover over the 'shortcuts' applet it shows me what's in my 'places' menu, but I have to click twice on any object to open it, and then it opens two instances of whatever I opened. As in I click once, could wait up to an hour probably, then click again and finally it opens up but twice.

I think all I have to do is disable gnome-panel somehow, but I wanted to check here first, so I don't screw up my computer. As it is, I have the dock working great. However, I can't just turn off the panel, which I currently have at the top of the screen.

I've been having problems with Cairo dock always showing below other windows. I have tried launching it with cairo-dock --keep-above and cairo-dock -a but to I have had no success. Even editing the settings from the configure to be "always on top" does not work.It was working before where it would appear above when I put the cursor at the bottom of the screen, but it isn't anymore, for whatever reason.

I used to be able to see the labels above the icons in the dock when I hover over them. For some reason I can't see them now. I think I may have turned something off in the Cairo Dock settings and can't remember where to implement this functionality again.

Just installed 10.10 Netbook Edition and Banshee, when I right-click Banshee in the dock after launching it, the menu does not give an option to keep it in there. It only shows the program name (listed as: "banshee-1") and "Quit"

I bring up Ubuntu 10.10 today and cairo-dock is all messed up. There is only a box on the left end of where it used to appear at the bottom of my desktop.There is no icons and no ability to do anything with it. It was perfectly fine yesterday, which is what I do not understand.
I installed some gstreamer updates, but that was after it was messed up and the updates didn't change anything.I am using the latest version of nVidia driver 260.19.29At first I tried purging compiz, cairo-dock and all the plugins, extras, etc, CCSM as well as Simple CCSM. Then I reinstalled everything fresh and nothing changed.I even tried removing the kernel 2.6.35-24-generic and reinstalling it and still no bueno!
When I try to even open Simple CCSM via System > Preferences, the cursor indicates activity for a while and then nothing.Right clicking on the desktop and attempting to change visual effects to any thing but None yields some weird stuff and then a message "Desktop effects could not be enabled".
Like I said it was fine yesterday and has been fine since installation until today. It cannot be the video driver or any of the obvious solutions as I have had this driver for quite a while and everything was perfect until now.And please don't say try Docky or AWN. Been there and done that and I prefer Cairo-dock open GL.

Circle Dock which is(in my opinion)a very cool Open source application which is essentially a circular, Oval, spiral dock for windows which is implemented in .Net using C#. Ever since I got to use it on windows I have been desperate to find an equivalent for Linux-The closest thing I have found is Circular application menu which is very different. I was wondering if anyone knew of something like circle dock that runs on linux?

Some app launchers can't be placed in the dock. The ones i have trouble with are the three games from Humble Frozenbyte Bundle, namely Shadowgrounds, Shadowgrounds Survivor and Trine. Their launcher icons look fine on dash, but when i start dragging them and the dash disappears, the icon turns into a question mark. Items on dock make room for the question mark icon, but after dropping it, it disappears and the dock icons return to where they were.
I guess there's something non-standard about the launchers. The games are installed under my home folder, and the game icons are xpm files in the game folder, like /home/veepee/.trine/Trine.xpm for example. The executables are in the same folder, like /home/veepee/.trine/trine-bin.
Too bad the print screen key doesn't take screenshots when the dash is up. What's up with that anyway?
