Binary package hint: metacity

Hello,

I'm part of the Cairo-Dock team. Cairo-Dock is a dock using Cairo/OpenGL backend. It needs a composite support and it works almost well with Metacity. There is just one problem : some flashes appear (often) and the dock is moved quickly when the window used by Cairo-Dock is resized. In fact Cairo-Dock resizes its window when the dock is active.
Can you have a look to this screencast? http://videobin.org/+fx/if.html

It seems that it's an old bug but sorry for that, we have never report this bug here. I have tested on Gnome 2.26 (Jaunty) and 2.28 (just before my other computer breaks down). Mutter is also affected by this bug
This bug is much present now because the resizing is more used.

You can find all informations about the installation of Cairo-Dock there : http://www.cairo-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=Accueil&lang=en#0-Installation
