Hello Matthieu, problem is solved !!!
to your luck - it is NOT a bug of compiz or of cairo-dock. it was really because of insufficient graphic-chip support by nvidia- driver. I just had again almost cramp because of nvidia-driver - there are 2 different possibilities of driver the package: NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.51.run ( which is general for several GFORCE-xxxM-cards (notebook) and NVIDIA_CUDA_SDK_1.1_Beta_Linux.run ( which is THE RIGHT PACKAGE in my case - hybrid chipset GFORCE with CUDA and Optimus ... ) wow ! solved 3 things at one time ! compiz works cairo works - black balcony disappeared ! and wobbly effect and full animations . . . < breath-taking ! - gasp - gasp - gasp ! > so you can lean back ! compiz is correct and cairo-dock is correct ! cheers and happy coding ! dschinn1001 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo- Dock Devs, which is subscribed to Cairo-Dock Core. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1181165 Title: bold black background in low-bottom of dock Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: New Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “gnome-desktop” package in Ubuntu: New 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 ?
