Sep 3, 2010I clicked on the anchor in Docky and then clicked on New Dock. This created a second dock which is empty. I want to remove this second empty dock. How is that done?

View 3 RepliesLook at the screenshot, I have only one file in trash but AWN and Docky counts 47+1 items. When it's empty it counts 47, and there's no way to really empty. But files are really gone. It doesn't happens with Cairo Dock (I don't know why).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've already Googled this problem, and it seems that the only solution is running:
Code:
nvidia-settings -a InitialPixmapPlacement=2 -a GlyphCache=1
in the terminal. However, this barely helped me.
I've heard it's a problem Docky has with nVidia drivers, which I use.
Does anyone have a solution? Docky is so slow it is essentially unusable at this point. Cairo dock seems too glitchy, so I guess it's back to AWN.
I would like to remove the anchor icon from Docky. I found instructions to go into gconf-editor and set "apps/docky-2/docky/items/DockyItem/ShowDockyItem" to false. Only problem is, this item does not appear.
The only folders in apps/docky-2/docky/items/ are ColoredIconDockItem and WnckDockItem. Inside ColoredIconDockItem, there's a key called DockyItem set at value 193. I tried changing/deleting that and restarting Docky, but it keeps defaulting back. I also removed and reinstalled Docky, but I found the same thing. Does anyone know how I can find the right value to change?
I certainly do not want to install Elementary OS, and just want a similar interface. I already installed docky, but Unity gets in the way. Is there a way I can disable that? Also, can I hide the docky application icon on Docky? Or is there a better way to do this?

Now when I insert the card, it shows that there are a bunch of JPG images on the card but they cannot be viewed or deleted. Here is the output when I try to delete them:

I was copying an .avi file to an external hard drive and half way through the copy the drive reset and required remounting. Consequently I have an empty .avi file on the hard drive. I tried to recopy the file and overwrite, but I keep getting 'Could not write to media/harddrive/filename.avi'. I tried to rename to file to be copied but got the same response, I cannot delete the empty file either, as I get an error telling I cannot delete it. I have tried to do this as the user and root with the same result.Any other file I tried to copy onto the external hard drive is fine, just this one zero length file and the file I was trying to copy, the original of the file. I also tried to delete the file on another computer but couldn'tExternal hard drive is a WD elements ntfs, which works great except for this glitch.

Code:
echo "$mystringwindowsorotherwithemptylastchar" |sed s/.$//
However if there are not then it makes a problem and delete effectively an existing char.

I like to try different combinations of *buntu in the several partitions on my first drive. One combo I enjoy playing with is the Minimal CD with Openbox or some other small footprint window manager.I'd like to try Docky, but the need for compositing is a problem for me. I don't want to install Gnome, KDE, or XFCE, because I don't want all the stuff that comes with them.Can you tell me the packages I need to install to get Docky working? Are Compiz and Docky enough?Will Compiz serve as a standalone window manager and automatically start at logon?

Is there a way to change the icon images for my applications in Docky?

Okay so when a Windows Pops up for instance like Gloobus Preview, Docky Closes and I have to reopen it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis year in college I've had the liberty to be learning about Linux. This was mostly in the shell so a lot of GUI applications we didn't use. The fun part of this all is that once you know how to work in Bash. Linux isn't all so frightening and confusing anymore ! So I've decided to finally take the shot on switching from Windows to Ubuntu Desktop and I must say I'm quite amazed with the customization you can do in Ubuntu.I just installed Docky and I installed Gnome Do. Now it has come to my attention that Gnome Do can integrate with Docky however I do have a small question concerning the customization of the Dock bar. In Gnome Do I would really like to have the panel look from Docky and I was wondering if this is possible. To me it seems that it's only possible to use the 3D look which looks a lot like Mac OSx. I'm aiming for a bit of a Windows 7 interface however.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running 10.10 (32bit), and for some reason, whenever I have Docky running in 3D mode, it glitches up, and I can see graphics/lines extending out of the dock.
My ATI drivers seem to be fine.
It's been two weeks now since I can't have my inbox checked on Docky's Gmail applet, and its a drag because I need an integrated mail notification and Docky is perfect.
So, here are the facts:
- have tried it on both 10.04 i386 and 10.10 amd64, identical problem
- after new installation works on till the first reboot, then stops. You see just the icon and when clickin "refresh" there's no "turning circle thingy inside the icon" which tells you it's refreshing. (and there's mail in the inbox).
- I haven't managed to find the docky configuration file, only something in the cache and configuration directory in home. Where is the real configuration file for Docky?
I'm talking about the 2.1 version.
I recently installed stacks for Docky using the script of this link here [URL]
Until that, everything is okay. I can drag and drop folders to Docky, and when I click 'em I can easily see it's content like in Mac OS or Cairo.
But the problem here is that I wanted to make an Application folder like in Mac OS X. I made a folder that I called aplications and there I put all the applications I have installed.
But, when I try to open an app from the Docky, it just opens gedit with info about the app I'm trying to open. Is it related that all the application's names are .desktop files? Is that an executable?
Below I leave two caps, the first is of the folder opened in Docky stacks. The second is of what I get when I try to open and application directly from stacks.
In today's updates there was an update for Docky to go from 2.0.5 to 2.0.6. The thing I thought was odd was that the update was only around 600 or 700kb in size where as its normally around ~13mb.
When I restarted the computer docky loaded but the whole system froze and wouldn't respond to either mouse or keyboard so I did a hard restart. Now Docky won't load either on restart or from the program menu but it is present in the System Monitor (see attached image).
and docky by activating the docky theme for do. But the theme is not listed in the appearance tab. Also i'm trying to find out how gnome-do and docky function: where does it pick up the icons for my launchers from? some icons are awefully low in resolution although the high resolution ones are in stock in /usr/share/icons/gnome/appsFinally i can't find where the custom settings of docky are saved, is there a configuration file somewhere?

View 3 Replies View RelatedDoes this happen to anyone? Is there fix for it? The problem doesn't appear immediately but seems to develop some time after launching docky.Some relevant specs:
- Ubuntu 9.10
- GeForce GTX 285 with 195.36.15 drivers
- Compiz enabled
I've attached a picture of it hiding behind Firefox.
I am a somewhat new user to Ubuntu, and I just upgraded to 10.04 from 9.10. I did not do a clean install, just an upgrade by running "update-manager -d". Once I upgraded, lots of problems started happening:
- I booted up, and nothing came up but text like in a command prompt; not a splash screen. Is that correct? - When I logged in, none of my windows had tops (i.e. Window Title, Buttons for minimize, maximize, and close). I changed the theme and turned on the max graphical effects, and that fixed it. (by the way, I know my graphics card can handle it because that is how it was set up on 9.10)
- ...Then, I took off the bottom panel and added Docky. Once I added my icons to it, I restarted, and then the window headers were once again gone, and Docky popped up a message in the top right saying it needed Composite support turned on (i.e. Metacity or Compiz). I turned it on in Metacity (I also have Compiz installed), but nothing changed. So now I have no tops to my windows and have to resort to ALT+F4 to close windows, etc, and I have a huge black rectangle taking up the lower 1/4 of my screen that is just black, with Docky in it...it isn't just a border around it like some other posts have said, but rather takes up almost half my screen.
I installed Docky, and docky has taken part of my screen. I have 80% of my screen layout. I do not know how to get back my full screen. how to get my full screen? worst case scenario, I do not mind un-installing Docky, but do not know how to do this.?

Also docky give an error msg : Docky requries Composting to work probably. And I should click on compiz fusion icon and select compiz window manager every time I boot up. So how can I fix it please??
