KxDocker configure how-to

[turbojugend_gr]

I believe not, and even if it where I would strongly suggest you not to use it, cause if kxdocker crash you can't manage your system at all. Actually MacOS X dock doesn't have a tray either.

[aniskasa]

Good point. It's just that some programs tend to put themselves to the system tray, like Skype. Would be nice to be able to command that prog too from the kxdocker.

I get a million of errors running it. And I think I followed the guide to its fullest, with no errors or warnings at all(which surprised me. Let me show you what errors I get:

THESE are the errors i get:


Any suggestions will be highly appreciated The docker starts, and I can access the configuration menu through the tray icon, but the whole thing seems to crash after 20 seconds or so.

The answer to my problem was solved by reading this thread:

IF understand right, you ae now happily using it right? If yes then I hope this how-to will help you to use it to the fullest.

P.S.: From what I 've seen you had too many plugin there, which are not to be used under gnome. This goes to most users, keep the plugins number low, the lower the better. You can install 'em after you have a working dock, and a backup of it's config .

[kpolice]

THX for the how-to, I am running kxdocker with GNOME now

[gejr]

Yes, I managed to install it, but I didn't like it too much. I think kiba-dock was easier to configure and easier to set up. + It didn't bug as much in my system. But I guess that's a matter of preference

This is my kiba-dock:

[turbojugend_gr]

Whatever suits you m8, I can't wait for kiba to introduce an "on drop command launcher" and a task manager, then I 'll definatelly switch too ,as kiba has awesome physics and is easily configarble.

The thing is that it would take more than a year, my guess, to match the superior kxdocker, not task manager, no docking, no plugins no nothing, it is only an ion docker, instead of having icons on your desktops you hold 'em on kiba and you get to play with them (god that's amuzing, I spend about 2 weeks playing with it-plain addiction),but nothinhg more, so for now there's chaotic difference betweeen the two apps, the one is a perfect panel replacement (kxdocker) and the other is only an "icon holder" (kiba).

[userundefine]

I'm having problems getting this to be stable in any way. I start with step 1, and can remove the 'window' around the dock, save the configuration file and restart and that works. But after that, I can't get anything to stay the way I've changed it. After I remove items from the dock, I can't add my own to it via drag & drop. Then, when I restart the dock, all the icons I deleted are back. What's more, when I start it from CLI I get nothing but an outspit of errors.

I've tried different kxdocker_conf.xml files, and they do nothing different for me. Any ideas?

[habtish]

It seems that there are various users that wish to use the MIGHTY kxdocker in their (gnome) ubuntu.

First of all install it using this very good supriyadisw how-to: http://www.supriyadisw.net/2006/03/k...n-dapper-drake

After you are successfully done, you should end up with an ugly "windowed" kxdocker, with your plugin choices only.

1. To remove the window and end up with a smooth kxdocker:

• Open configurator from the tray icon, then navigate to the window tab, and there make the following changes:
  
  IN THE DESKTOP SQUARE:
• "auto send the docker to background layer" (unchecked)
• "auto raise the dock on events" (checked)
• "enable fast hiding" (unchecked)
• "Raise the dock whenever you touch the left corner" (unchecked)*
• "Raise ................................right corner" (unchecked)*
• "Hide the dock after" (whatever you like I use 1200ms)
• "Wait before raise the dock" (20ms)
• "Desktop shrink (whatever you want-i use the default value)
  
  Store configuration now and close, you might need to restart kxdocker to see the changes (i can't recall).
  
  * --> It has to do with your beryl settings, in my beryl config, I have nothing set to right corner gesture, but it is safer to leave both unchecked for start, then you can experiment. If you mess up the config KILL the process do not exit through the tray, or the messed up config will be saved.

2 Now remove all the malfunctioning plug-in you thought you needed. . Simply right-click and "remove this". (usual things are the pager,clock,trash,kde menu and others)

3 You are now left with a few icons, don't worry let's populate this dock: simply drag and drop ALL (yes all) the apps you use at least once a week! Don't worry you will manage them... I 'll tell you how later.

Am afraid I am getting stuck here. I followed the steps on the linked page to compile from source. Also compiled things like trash,configurator,trayiconlogger,resources...
and I came here and started following this howto.. Now when you say to "drag and drop" icons.. do we drag and drop them in the dock?? Because nothing is happening for me when I drag and drop applications into the dock. the only remaining Icon I have on it is the trash and it actually deleted an Icon when I tried to drop it in the docker and ended up dropping it in the trash...

Building this thing from source sorta took some time and I feel like a fool having come this far and getting stuck at such a step.. please elaborate/help

also forgot to put this up on my post, when I am trying to drag icons into the dock, this is what is happening in the terminal
