Bug Description

Docky always worked perfectly... until Gnome 3 arrived.

At first, it was working just like it had before... It seems that if you modify Docky settings while using Gnome 3, that it might stop working. This happened on two systems already, both of which have just been upgraded to Gnome 3.

Docky won't start and here's what I'm getting at the command line:
docky
[Info 22:26:27.061] Docky version: 2.1.1 Release

What I had changed what added a new dock ("Dock3), then removed one ("Dock2"), leaving Dock1 and Dock3.

On my other system, Docky crashes when you hit the "Close" button. I'll post what I get on the other machine's console when I get a chance. I fear it's Gnome 3 related as I've never had any problems prior to Gnome 3.

I hope it can be fixed, Gnome-3-related or not, because I really like Docky and want to continue using it! :D
