> shows only a small hook in palette dock (first screenshot)

The initial size (screenshot 1) seems related to the custom scroll bar
overlay in recent Ubuntu distributions (see also bug #884368 and bug
#902054). Not reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.2 and 0.48+devel r10795 on
Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard and OS X 10.7.2 Lion.

> Actual : a big red X with no palette.

In screenshot 2, it looks as if you have selected the 'Auto' palette in
the 'Swatches…' dialog - as long as you don't have defined custom
swatches in the current document, the 'Auto' palette only shows the
default swatch to remove a fill (or stroke) color. This is not a bug,
but expected behavior [1]. Please click on the small triangle in the
upper right corner of the 'Swatches…' dialog and select one of the
predefined palettes (e.g. 'Inkscape default'). Do you still see no other
colors?

[1] Please read the documentation about custom swatches here:
