If you look at the attached screen shot I was getting a black Manage Theme window. I looked at my software sources and saw that my repo line for cairo was hardy not intrepid. So I followed this guide:

http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-install-and-configure-cairo-dock-in-ubuntu-intrepid/2009/01/20

Everything installed without a hitch until I go to Applications/System Tools/Cairo Dock...then I get nothing.

I try Alt-F2 Cairo-dock..nothing

Thanks in advance...now I'm going to bed pissed cause I couldn't figure it out...hopefully I'll be happier in the later this morning....

The same thing happend to me, There was no dock. Then i moved the mouse to the bottem and found out it starts in Auto Hide. Thats the only hitch i had with Cairo Dock.
That desktop of yours is great. Its the coolest looking ice cube and could you say what theme you have.
