I think there needs to be some tweaking in cairo-dock too for OpenGL version to work for ATI cards. the sluggishness will be taken care of by the xorg
Below is the output is get when i run from the terminal: ~$ cairo-dock -o warning : (cairo-dock-draw-opengl.c:cairo_dock_get_opengl_config:1690) couldn't find an appropriate visual ourself, trying something else, this may not work with some drivers ... warning : (cairo-dock-modules.c:cairo_dock_preload_module_from_directory:327) while opening module '/usr/lib/cairo-dock/libcd-xfce-integration.so' : (libthunar-vfs-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) gtk_widget_get_gl_context: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed OpenGL version: 1.5 Mesa 7.6-devel OpenGL vendor: DRI R300 Project OpenGL renderer: Mesa DRI R300 (RV515 7145) 20090101 x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL DRI2 if your drivers are crappy, we'll know it immediately ... ok, they seem fine enough. warning : (cairo-dock-config.c:cairo_dock_get_double_key_value:172) Key file does not have key 'scroll speed' warning : (cairo-dock-config.c:cairo_dock_get_double_key_value:172) Key file does not have key 'scroll accel' cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vish/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/rendering/rendering.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) g_key_file_has_key: assertion `key_file != NULL' failed warning : (cairo-dock-keyfile-utilities.c:cairo_dock_flush_conf_file_full:72) Couldn't find any installed conf file cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vish/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/dialog-rendering/dialog-rendering.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vish/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/Animated-icons/Animated-icons.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22 And OpenGL version wont start. ~$ cairo-dock -c warning : (cairo-dock-modules.c:cairo_dock_preload_module_from_directory:327) while opening module '/usr/lib/cairo-dock/libcd-xfce-integration.so' : (libthunar-vfs-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) warning : (cairo-dock-config.c:cairo_dock_get_double_key_value:172) Key file does not have key 'scroll speed' warning : (cairo-dock-config.c:cairo_dock_get_double_key_value:172) Key file does not have key 'scroll accel' cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vishnoo/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/rendering/rendering.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) g_key_file_has_key: assertion `key_file != NULL' failed warning : (cairo-dock-keyfile-utilities.c:cairo_dock_flush_conf_file_full:72) Couldn't find any installed conf file cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vishnoo/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/dialog-rendering/dialog-rendering.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) cairo_dock_replace_values_in_conf_file (/home/vishnoo/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/Animated-icons/Animated-icons.conf) cairo_dock_replace_key_values (0) Non-OpenGL Starts and works fine. -- Artifacts with cairo dock 2.0 [openGL] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408065 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo- Dock Team, which is a direct subscriber.
