HOWTO: kiba-dock

[Muppeteer]

I can't seem to be able drag'n'drop anything on to it, its just two little bits of pixels at the bottom (if I rotate my cube in beryl I can see it hiding just underneath my desktop). If I drag any icons from a kde program it just pops a menu up from kdesktop to add it there instead, but if I drag an icon from a GTK program (like inkscape) I get animated arrows appear near the dock. The icon still doesn't attach itself to the dock, do I need to be running Gnome for it to work properly or is their a KDE workaround? Or am I just doing something wrong :(

I had the same problem....

You need to create a shortcut on the desktop (easiest way) and drag it into ~/.kiba-dock/launcher

This folder is hidden, so you'll need to show hidden files or just use the teminal :)

Hope that works for ya :guitar:

hey guys,

i used this repo install to install kiba-dock

http://www.kiba-dock.org/components/com_mambowiki/index.php?title=Installing_Kiba-Dock

and everything installed fine, but when i start kiba-dock i just get a black bar across the bottom of the screen. i have beryl and emerald installed, adn they are working correctly.

any ideas on what i can do?

[rabid9797]

bump :(

[Fireblend]

Maybe if you right-click the beryl icon and select reload window manager?

[rabid9797]

nope, didn't work

[rabid9797]

=\

[Fidelity]

Im getting the same problem

It might have someting to do with this:

** Message: cant load file /home/james/.kiba-dock/config into buffer notificatio ns: Failed to open file '/home/james/.kiba-dock/config': No such file or directo ry

[rabid9797]

i had a problem with that, but i actually just went to the kiba-dock site and recomplied from source and everything worked.

[Fidelity]

Following the instructions in the first post, I can do ./autogen.sh once, but in the other folders it wont work, it says:

bash: ./autogen.sh: No such file or directory

I did everything correctly and i'm sure of it. Please help, I really want kiba dock :(

[Artificial Intelligence]

Some of them are in /src or similar try check it, it might be in a sub dir.

[Muppeteer]

I'm trying to install the svn version after a clean install but i keep failing dependencies and i don't know where to get them.

checking for KIBA_DOCK... configure: error: Package requirements ("akamaru >= 0.1 glib-2.0 >= 2.8.0 gobject-2.0 gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.8.0 cairo >= 1.0.0 pango >= 1.10.0 pangocairo >= 1.10.0") were not met:


Aren't these major parts of Ubuntu? gnome-desktop, gtk? Anybody know what i can do?

[tyboon]

I also have beryl locked into 0.20 version cause i run on xgl-gnome....What now...?
Should i procced...?What about the error i got from the server...
Thanx...:)

[Artificial Intelligence]

Rerun the proceed again, it happens sometimes that connecting to server fail.

[[SbReGo>]

i got this...
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GSET_KIBA... configure: error: Package requirements ("akamaru >= 0.1 kiba-dock >= 0.1") were not met:

No package 'kiba-dock' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GSET_KIBA_CFLAGS
and GSET_KIBA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


i dunno how to get around this,,
one more: i dont see any configure files and anything to compile in these 2 dir (this could be the motive of the above error!!??!)
cd ../kibadock/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../kibaplugins/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall

for both i got this:
root@ubuntulan:/usr/local/src/kiba-dock/akamaru# cd ../kibadock/
root@ubuntulan:/usr/local/src/kiba-dock/kibadock# ./autogen.sh
bash: ./autogen.sh: no file or directory

gimme some , please!

]S>

[Artificial Intelligence]

There's a subfolder in each so you have to eg. cd ../kibaplugins/<folder name>

[[SbReGo>]

yes tnx AI, very quick response
i got it by myself, anyway
now have to face this:

root@ubuntulan:/usr/local/src/kiba-dock/kibaplugins/trunk# ./autogen.sh prefix=/usr/
bla bla bla..
[...]until
checking for sys/time.h... yes
./configure: line 20423: syntax error near unexpected token `0.35.0'
./configure: line 20423: `IT_PROG_INTLTOOL(0.35.0)'


same for other dir. . .

i ve noticed that at a certain point of the configuring process this came out :
Please add the files
codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4
progtest.m4
from the /aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.


but i dont know how to treat this advice..

there s some minimum requirements i have to consider befor installing this or what?
i foun d i should have:

# ntltoolsize --->installed
# gnome-desktop ----->installed
# Cairo 1.2.0 (optional) --->?
# Librsvg > 2.14.4 (optional) --->?
# Glitz >= 0.5.3 (opzionale)--->?
# Xorg with Composite Extension anabled --->?
# Composite Manager (xcompmgr, kcompmgr, beryl, compiz)--->Beryl up&working
# memory plug-in require libgtop --->?
# bin plug-in require libgnomevfs --->?

how can i know iif all this suff are installed?

tnx again

[S>

[Artificial Intelligence]

Check them in synaptic would be easist

[[SbReGo>]

what about the errors?

should they disappear asa i have installed items above?

Please, spend as more word as you can as i am very new on the tux world .. so, to understand a short sentence take to me a day !
tnx
hope to be able to start this addon sooooon !

[S>

[Artificial Intelligence]

It's hard to say as kiba-dock is in early alpha stage and can be highly unstable or completly broken.

But you can try, just don't get the hopes up to high,

sudo aptitude install libgnomevfs2-dev libcairo2-dev librsvg2-dev libxcomposite-dev libgtop2-dev

[[SbReGo>]

I am almost there...
step by step ..

I ve understood tht error are due to a non-updated library ...
I had the inittool of older version so i got this error: `IT_PROG_INTLTOOL(0.35.0)'
after updating this i went beyond..
just a little, to find this:

checking for GNOME_DESKTOP... configure: error: Package requirements (gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8) were not met:

No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

I think tht Gnome an important part of the Desktop graphic environment (as it is the environment itself) but i dont know how to find out the installed version.

dpkg -l gnome-desktop does not find anything.

how can i get over this condition ? gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8
I saw gnome-desktop come with the release 2.18 . . . what should I aptitude install to meet this requirement?

many tnx AI, you r definitely my tutor... seem so . :D

best
[S>

[Artificial Intelligence]

Try with
sudo aptitude install libgnome-desktop-dev

[[SbReGo>]

yes, i got it (by myself) but you answer is correct! :D

now i have it up & running .. i am happy now! ;)

The problem was only to prepare the environment. asa I have it done with newer libs .. it compiled easily .. :D ..
pretty cool!

what s next? :P
tnx AI for ur support!

PS: maybe this is not the right place to ask for .. but .. when I start beryl .. the frame of the windows disappear.. so i have to move them by pressing ALT+ mouse click .. any suggestion?

cheers!

sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals

should do it (if you use nvidia card), then restart X (ctrl+alt+backspace)

I've done all them codes to install the kiba dock, but I don't see anything.
I haven't downloaded any deb files because the top link is broken.
Do I have to download anything?

thx

[galileo99]

ive alien a rpm pakage of kiba dock. installation when fine, when i execute kiba-dock i get a blue oval on the screen. where do i get the correct plugins, i think i have the wrong ones... tks

[TheRingmaster]

I have installed all that was required and I just can't seem to get kiba-dock started. I installed it from the kiba-dock wiki for ubuntu feisty (http://www.kiba-dock.org/components/com_mambowiki/index.php?title=Installing_Kiba-Dock#Ubuntu). This is what it says when I try to start kiba-dock from the terminal.

I have installed all that was required and I just can't seem to get kiba-dock started. I installed it from the kiba-dock wiki for ubuntu feisty. This is what it says when I try to start kiba-dock from the terminal.
I'm getting exactly the same here.

[amadeus266]

Has anyone else had kiba-dock running and noticed cpu usage running at a constant 50-70 percent?

The Kiba-dock web page is been updated, you can found instructions and how to install there, look at the wiki:

http://www.kiba-dock.org/

[Znupi]

I tried installing kiba-dock but failed when ./autogen.sh-ing kibadock. This is the error:

checking for GNOME_DESKTOP... configure: error: Package requirements (gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8) were not met:

(Feisty Fawn user here). Anyway, I've abandoned the idea of kiba-dock, and want to remove it. But, I've gotten to compile akamaru. Can I shift-delete everything or did it install things outside it's directory?

[marq]

i cant seem to get it to work

:~/kiba-dock/kibadock$ ./autogen.sh
bash: ./autogen.sh: No such file or directory

i dont know what im doing wrong it's exactly copy and pasted,
it's probly really dumb but i just dont get it

Do we have to mkdir in a special location ??

Thank you for uploading that package, but I got a problem:

When I try to run it by typing kaiba-dock in the terminal, it just sits there doing nothing. I'm running Beryl too if that has anything to do with it.

EDIT: Okay, after logging off and back on, now it just returns "command not found".

make sure you are spelling it right. It is "kiba-dock" not "kaiba-dock".

[Mardok45]

make sure you are spelling it right. It is "kiba-dock" not "kaiba-dock".

Woops, that was a typo on just this post, I know I typed kiba-dock in the terminal.

[wataboutbob]

strange... sudo aptitude couldn't find any packages when I search for "kiba" despite adding the source to the repo. Is the repo broken again?

I'm so sorry if I'm not following, but I found this kiba-dock 64 bit .deb for my 64bit OS and ran it, I types "kiba-dock" in the terminal to run it and nothing is happening.
Can someone PLEASE tell me how to install and run this on a 64 bit Ubuntu OS with Beryl installed?

[dannymichel]

The icons aren't crisp.
Is this how kiba-dock is supposed to look?

[H.E. Pennypacker]

Straight from Kiba-dock's website:


1. Open a Terminal Window.

How do I get these icons to be crisp?

[bertlacy]

Question...

Do you have to have Beryl up and running to use kiba-dock?

[Irti]

checking for GTK... yes
checking for GNOME_DESKTOP... configure: error: Package requirements ( gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8 ) were not met:

No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GNOME_DESKTOP_CFLAGS
and GNOME_DESKTOP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


i tried searching for gnome-desktop-2.0 everywhere.........no luck.......where to get it from.......????????

[shazm]

i do not know what "Build each in turn:" means

[dannymichel]

What's up with the fact that my icons are not as crisp as AWN icons?

[hardyn]

What's up with the fact that my icons are not as crisp as AWN icons?

they are probably being scaled up... you likely need larger icons to defeat the fussiness.

[arashiko28]

Thanks a lot, this was the easiest of all instructions to install kiba-dock, how ever, after i installed it, the screen turned black and i couldn't see my documents, until i quited the program.... please help!!!!:confused: i'm learning to use ubuntu and all that implies linux alone](*,)](*,)](*,)

[arsenic23]

( If someone already said this then let me apologize for being redundant. )

Just a heads up, if your using the Beryl in the official repositories then you may want to avoid updating Beryl from the repos listed in this thread. I used the Beryl out of this repo:
deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy

and found it to be a fair bit more buggy then the one in the official repository, specifically when manually resizing windows. In the long run I ended up commenting out the above, and removing and reinstall Beryl and the two lib files it uses as well as its configuration directory.

*Your milage may vary of course.

[nerdmods]

I know everyone has been having issues getting this installed and running, after trying all the steps in here, and the kiba-dock wiki I decided to uninstall everything via synaptic package manager, then install kiba-dock from there, worked like a charm. Everything is up and running fine. No worries, just added the Startup item of kiba-dock and everything loads. :) Thanks to everyone for putting me on the right track though.

[mitch0319]

I don't know if anybody else had that but the folder kibadock does not contain the autogen.sh file... need some help with that if possible
thank you

[jimminy_kriket]

I have the same problem, its in the trunk folder, at least one is in there, not sure if its the proper one. I couldnt get it to work anyways.

"May Currently Be Broken" i guess...

I couldn't find the package using synaptics... How did you find it?

Done, I added trevino's repos. Akamaru works quite bad, though... Very slow...

Everything was working fine for the first directory. Then, when going to the next directory
./autogen.sh command gave this error

I assume I deleted it because it worked perfectly when going through the initial steps of the kiba doc code. but how?

[sc0rn77]

i think kiba-dock was removed from those webpages (u can find the on kiba-dock official webpage) and thats why they cant be found on the synaptic or through sudo apt-get install kiba-dock. Anyone have any other ideas?

[Myzrael]

I have one problem. FIxed must depency problems but I have a new one now.

checking for GNOME_DESKTOP... configure: error: Package requirements (gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.8) were not met:

No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GNOME_DESKTOP_CFLAGS
and GNOME_DESKTOP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.




How to fix that one? I'm running Ubuntu Feisty 64bit with GNOME.

[Depressed Man]

sudo apt-get install libgnome-desktop-dev

For the gnome-desktop 2.0

[Arasa]

I had kiba dock working fine, then I installed compiz fusion via trevinos repository. I can see he had some kiba stuff in there which I used to update mine. During that sessionI had the dock working fine. Reboot and its gone. I click to start and it doesn't appear. I can see it the process manager but not on the screen. :confused:

So, do I need to start off compiz fusion first, then start kiba? Or is there something else I'm missing? Someone said about updating libraries as 3v1's are not the latest? Or just use the .deb in page 20 of this thread?

Anyone else using compiz fusion wanna post how they got it all working together please.

[Depressed Man]

I use to use 3v1's but I don't think they've been updated in a while. Couldn't build it either, but where is this .deb your talking about?

[pnoque]

I got this:

BTW, I love my system. thanks for your time.

I also had this problem but its a simple fix. obviously the dir structure has changed slightly since this was written. use these commands instead:


cd akamaru/
./autogen.sh
make

cd ../kibadock/trunk/
./autogen.sh
make

cd ../kibaplugins/trunk/
./autogen.sh
make

cd ../gsetkiba/
./autogen.sh
make


hope that helps!

[Depressed Man]

Anyone know how to remove kiba -dock completly? I tried to install the SVN with the help of a script which ended in a horrible horrible accident. Now I can't remove it with the script (it thinks the SVN file isn't there) but when I try to install it (it says it already exists) and I already deleted the SVN folders.

I'm thinking I need to delete all traces of it. Does anyone know how to do it?

[borimrr]

Straight from Kiba-dock's website:


1. Open a Terminal Window.
2. Type the following:

# sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

1. If you are using Edgy (6.10) version: Add the following lines to the end of the file:

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy beryl-svn
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb edgy beryl-svn

1. If you are using Feisty (7.04) version: Add the following lines to the end of the file:

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy

1. Save and Exit Gedit.
2. Run from the same terminal window:

# wget http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb/DD800CD9.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install kiba-dock
# sudo apt-get install kiba-dock-dev
# sudo apt-get install kiba-plugins



After I do this I run it and it gives me an error: kiba-dock
Error: Unable to open dir /home/marcos/.kiba-dock/config_schemas
notifications: Error opening directory '/home/marcos/.kiba-dock/config_schemas'
No such file or directory
It gives me a plain black bar on the bottom that is 3-4 times taller than it should be. When I do sudo kiba-dock the bar is at normal size but plain black. I went to the folder and all I see is a "config" file but no "config_schemas" any ideas what might be wrong?

[Depressed Man]

The black bar is caused by not running a Windows manager like Beryl, Compiz, or Compiz Fusion. Though there's one you can run that provides the basic requirement without the fanciness of the ones I listed (but I don't know it's name).

Are you saying you compiled it from source and then deleted the source file? It's unclear what you did. Maybe post a link to the directions you followed....

Does this actually work? I'm using Feisty Fawn with Gnome, an Intel gfx and Compiz Fusion.

I get the exact same error. It was working fine before I put compiz fusion on, this is clearly related.

Does anyone have a fix or a sure fire way of getting the latest kiba-dock on compiz fusion?

[mont]

download the svn from sourceforge, its working!

[Depressed Man]

Are you saying you compiled it from source and then deleted the source file? It's unclear what you did. Maybe post a link to the directions you followed....

I used the EasyKiba script that was on the forums. It downloads the SVNs and automates the process of ./autogen.sh, make, and sudo make install.

It errored out but it seemed to leave Kiba in a somewhat working condition. But I wanted to redo it. So I deleted the SVN files and tried to use the script to install again. However it reports the SVN is still installed and to use update. So I tried update and it says it can't find the files. And I can't remove it with the script too since it doesn't report it's existence. But Kiba dock has to be installed somewhere since I can use it.

So I'm just trying to remove all traces of Kiba Dock and manually installing it from the new SVN location at sourceforge. But I don't know where all the Kiba dock files are.

Edit: Here's the link to the instructions (well script I used). http://www.kiba-dock.org/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=30&topic=274.0

Try creating the folder its asking for:


mkdir ~/.kiba-dock/config_schemas


If it yells at you, then try just:

mkdir ~/.kiba-dock

First then:

mkdir ~/.kiba-dock/config_schemas




Hope this helps. I believe Seg Faults are casued when its trying to write outside of its assigned place or something in that nature lol..

thanks! worked like a charm! kiba dock is running perfectly now

[keenish27]

well, it works as long as i keep the terminal open, is there way to have this run without keeping the terminal open?

EDIT: i have it on the dock now...dunno how i did, but i did

[fotakis]

Hello keenish27, when you say it works like a charm, is it working smoothly? And are you using compiz-fussion debs from the tuxfamily repos?

I can't get it work so I would like some input

[keenish27]

fotakis,

when i said works like a charm i mean its running smooth and perfect.

as for what repos i'm using, i honestly have no idea. i'm very new to linux (second day) and i just followed this guide to get ubuntu running

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=399913&highlight=dell+6400

when i was finished i already had beryl installed and went from there. i hope this helps you.

[WIGGMPk]

well, it works as long as i keep the terminal open, is there way to have this run without keeping the terminal open?

Yes, you can set your session to automatically run it when GNOME starts.

Here's how:

System > Preferences > Sessions:

Startup Programs Tab:

New > Name: Kiba-Dock > Command: kiba-dock

Click Ok, Session Options tab > Save Current Session.


Hope that helps.

Fotakis, there is a wiki that might able to help you. If your running on amd64 you'll have to use the SVN.

Hello WGGMK,

I followed that guide but the dock is way too buggy, it gets stuck alot, and akamaru is just not working.

I gave the the debs from kiba-dock.org a try and the same, I compiled my own and the same, so I assumed that its compiz-fussion's fault instead. I will just have to wait for newer releases on the repos.

[rne1223]

Hi...I'm kinda new to Festy (linux in general) and I was wandering how can I install intltool because it is giving me this error when I'm trying to ./autogen.sh:

checking for intltool...
***Error***: You must have intltool installed to compile akamaru

Could some please help me. Thanks

[Arasa]

I have been trying like crazy to get kiba to work on compiz fusion to no avail.. Used keen's approach, made the dir, and nothing, I mean nothing happens..

All I can say is switch to AWN, far more stable, less resource hungry and is actually better looking, just lacking physics engine, but who cares when it works..

AWN is the way to go.

[vexorian]

Hey, I actually saw the title of this thread and instead of trying the method described I just looked through synaptic if there was a package and there was, although it could be one of the repositories I added.

I tried it and I like it better than AWN, its clock is better it got a very cool show desktop button with that it tops AWN in functionality by ages (IMHO)

Regarding compiz fusion, I didn't really get any issues, so I am not sure what's the problem.

[Kabezon]

Well, I installed, first time I ran it with alt+f2, but nothing happened. Then, I tried oppening it from Applications>Accessories>Kiba-Dock and nothing happened. Finally, I tried from terminal but I get this error:

Error (dialog.c @ line 209):
Failed to load Plugins from /usr/local/lib/kiba-dock!
Please install the Plugins and Kiba under the same Prefix
FATAL (main.c @ line 1270):
Failed to load Plugins


OK , no big deal, just sudo apt-get install kiba-plugins, right? well, I get this error when I do so:

E: Couldn't find package kiba-plugins

OK... so I open the Synaptic Package Manager and search of Kiba, NOTHING! ZERO! How can this be? o.o My repos seem to be OK also so... I'm out of ideas... So what can I do? Is there anotherway to install the plugins? I don't think so o.O

PS: If I'm doing anything noobish, forgive me, I am a noob, just 2 weeks using Linux ^^

[Jak08]

Well I did the synaptic seach and got it, it might be that it is from the eyecandy repository though.

I don't think I like it as well as AWN though, it is a bit of a resource hog, and it was a little buggy from the few minutes I played with it.

[vexorian]

__________________

I guess it is no coincidence that Jak08 could do and he also knew of AWN, it seems that I got Kiba-dock from Treviño's SVN repositories.

[Jak08]

I suppose I might as well just give you the shortcut to get that repository, I am borrowing from Vorian's post in the How To: Compiz Fusion on Ubuntu 7.04

First type this into the terminal
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

And then add this at the bottom of the list

Hi everyone, I've been playing winth kiba for some time, and have a few questions.
1) I'm a xubuntu user, is there any way to activate the menu and trash plugins in kiba using xfce?
2) All my icons disappear when I turn physics on, does anyone know why?
Thanks!

I hate the repositories, No idea what could've gone wrong :S

[santiagoward2000]

2) All my icons disappear when I turn physics on, does anyone know why?

Hey, I get to make this work (sorta...) It seems I have to set all options to default before starting kiba. Then I can fool around with physics with no problem.
Any way, this is kind of annoying, can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks!

[Depressed Man]

been trying like crazy to make this work in 7.04 but one of the kiba SVN is down.

You sure your getting it from sourceforge right? They have a new SVN location. I don't know how far back Trevino's repos actually is though...

so i kiba works perfect but its set to appear below stuff but it still appears ontop of everything except fullscreen apps, can i fix this?

[B3n3v3nt3]

I've just installed it and runs perfectly, the thing is, I wanted to add the trash icon into it and I don't know how. I've enabled the Trash Icon in the settings but it doesn't appear. Any help would be much appreciated.

[mattgaunt]

B3n3v3nt3 - I have found that with kiba-dock and many other dock programs that the applets aren't focused anywhere near as much as the dock itself and i have tried kiba-dock and avant - window - navigator and both have had their own issues

So unfortunately its all trial and error and deciding which one you like best or whether u want it at all

hello people,

i also installed kiba-dock.
after some trouble because of differnet config / plugin paths i finally got it to run.
now i start the dock with this line:

kiba-dock --config-file '/home/max/kiba-dock/kiba-dock/config.h' --plugin-path '/home/max/kiba-dock/kiba-plugins'

now there's a blue transparent triangle at the bottom edge. physics cannot be activated.
icons be dropped an the dock but don't appear on it.

here's the command prompt log:
root@laptop-max:~/kiba-dock/kiba-dock# kiba-dock --config-file '/home/max/kiba-dock/kiba-dock/config.h' --plugin-path '/home/max/kiba-dock/kiba-plugins' --verbose

please, does anyone know whats going on??

thanks

[luedi]

well... it works now!

i uninstalled the whole thing and reinstalled it in the standard directory.
no it runs fine and without path modifiers.

thanks anyway.

[boast]

Thanks PriceChild & Ayoli, but finally figured it out how to get it working (well sort of) ;) just me being impatient again :mrgreen:

how?

[UrBaNAcID]

I know i should read the whole thread but i didnt feel like reading 38 pages of comments ... My Kiba dock was working perfectly for about a month and a half. Im not having any major issues but for some reason i am unable to add any new launchers to it.. It just stopped on its own .. Anyone else having this problem if so how can i resolve this because its driving me nuts.. Thanks

[elgilicious]

This works in Xubuntu 7.10. I have, however, had a problem with autohide. When the dock is in autohide mode and I close a window, the dock shuts down. I don't know if it's a problem on my end. Does anyone else have this problem?

EDIT: It was a problem on my end. In Xubuntu, there's an option to save the session for the next login. That is, everything that ran in the last session will run again. I also set kiba-dock to autostart. Thus, if I selected the option of saving the session for the next login, then kiba-dock would start once because of the session save and again because of my setting it to autostart. To remedy this, I just removed kiba-dock from autostarting, opting instead to just save my session for next login. This has fixed the problem above in Xubuntu 7.10.

Once Kiba and plugins are installed how would you make the icon move freely as in some of the videos?

If it helps I spent hours trying to get this to work on my 64 bit sys with no sucess. There is some trouble with the plugins. I found a workaround but didn't get it to work.
I found a how to for Cairo dock and it took a matter of minutes and I love it.
I would love to try kiba-dock at somepoint but if you are looking for something about as good and much easier check this out.
