- The version of Cairo-Dock ('cairo-dock -v' in a terminal).
3.4.99alpha1- Your GNU/Linux distribution (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.).
Mint 17.3- Or you using OpenGL or not.
No OpenGL- Your Window manager (Compiz, Metacity, Kwin, Openbox, etc.).
Xfwm4+compton- Your Desktop Environment (Gnome, KDE, XFCE, etc.).
XFCE
I just bought a ThinkServer T140 and installed Mint 17.3. I installed Cairo-Dock and though it works, a large are of the screen is black. I tried using my old .config/cairo-dock and it too lead to the black background but the applets worked. Somewhere I read a suggestion to install compton; did that but still black. My machine being a server did not come with a graphics board but has some motherboard graphics so I assume that OpenGL is not supported. I tried running both with and without OpenGL and got the same result.
Would a graphics card with proprietary driver supporting OpenGL help my situation?
CD is really part of the way I approach my machine and I would really like to have it; it's in my fingers.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in Advance,
