I am using an nVidia 8800 GTS card, Linuxming KDE 14 and having the same issue with Docky. In a virtual machine it is not reproducible.

Can someone please verify if experiencing this bug with nVidia cards?

Why is this bug set to low priority if it is still going on since so long?

What debugs can help clarify what the root cause is?

I see there are some switches related to nVidia cards:

user@computer ~/.kde/Autostart $ docky --help
[Info 19:36:43.933] Docky version: 2.1.4 Release
[Info 19:36:43.944] Kernel version: 3.5.0.17
[Info 19:36:43.945] CLR version: 4.0.30319.1
usage: docky [options]

  -p, --disable-polling Disable cursor polling (for testing)
  -m, --max-size=VALUE Maximum window dimension (min 500)
  -d, --debug Enable debug logging
  -n, --netbook Netbook mode
      --nv, --nvidia Nvidia mode (for Nvidia cards that lag after a
                               while). Equivalent to '-b 10'.
  -b, --buffer-time=VALUE Maximum time (in minutes) to keep buffers
  -h, -?, --help Show this help list

I have tries modifying the autostart command to <docky --nvidia> and <docky -b 120> to no avail.
