Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
Hello,
I'm part of the Cairo-Dock team. Cairo-Dock is (more than :) ) a dock using Cairo/OpenGL backend. It needs a composite support and it worked very well until this last month on Ubuntu Karmic : some flashes appear (rarely) when the window used by Cairo-Dock is resized. In fact Cairo-Dock resizes its window when the dock is active.
I saw this bug last month (~28 Aug) and it seems that it's not a bug due to Cairo-Dock. I haven't any problem on Jaunty and I use Karmic from the beginning. I've also tested with a previous version of Cairo-Dock and the problem is the same. The problem is also present with the last release of Compiz (0.8.3+
I guess it's due to the 0.8.2-0ubuntu16 release. You can look at the diff file : http://
For more informations about Cairo-Dock and its installation, look there : http://
Thanks for your help and for your great project !
