I think that the only responsible is your X3100 Intel card.
It seems that Xorg needs "UXA" for a good OpenGL support with Intel cards but it didn't work now on Ubuntu (it worked on a Alpha Jaunty release but not now...)
Maybe it works on Arch Linux (it depends of Xorg). If you want test it now, you can add this line on your "xorg.conf", section "Monitor" (make a backup !) :
Option "AccelMethod" "UXA"
But I advise you to wait a confirmation by another Intel card user. |

it looks like a driver issue.
what kind of card have you ? if it's an ATI, you can give up on OpenGL until they make proper drivers. |

Oui on verra je suis sceptique maintenant si près du but et après tout casse. En tout cas faudra pas hesiter a rentrer tot dans le test de karmic car je crois qu'il faudra reporter des bugs sur mesa aussi... J attens apres l'UDS pour commencer a tester.. |

Sorry i did not respond in english... I was the guy testing the intel drivers during the Jaunty update process. i can tell you that the alpha 6 was working better for intel cards than the final release... :'-|.
Cairo-dock opengl was usable.. Now it s a bloody mess.
I think it s too early for testing karmic koala because as Nochka said they dropped EXA support so too much crashes are going to be expected... But i will urge to test and report bug for intel drivers under karmic.. you will be able to use cairo-dock opengl as a good benchmark..
Me i m back with the normal display i m just using the plugins which are great... |

not X3100(GL960/GM965),
but I have tried with GMA3100(G31) and ubuntu jaunty default intel driver(2.6.3-0ubuntu9) ,UXA(DRI2).
UXA and Indirect-Rendering option seem to make the dock work.
Speed of rotate animation for icons is very slow, though.
I have just added one line into xorg.conf "device" section.
Option "AccelMethod" "UXA"
then, run cairo-dock with -i option.
Enabling UXA made also DRI2 automatically enabled.
I had been checking this ubuntu forum thread, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582
and found this post, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7202479&postcount=264
Actually if you are running the newer G31/35 and above series chip, all you have to do is to enable uxa in xorg, no need to update xorg or kernel, everything works fine, Google Earth, Penguin racer etc.
For older chipsets and other 9xx series Intel, you have no resort but to go the recommended way of changing kernel and driver and then applying mttr fix.
so, tried that by myself. |

It all depends about the chipset of the drivers .... me UXA is unusable and it will not start the xserver...
I ve tried to start cairo-dock with -i options after selected opengl and i had a xorg crash  |
