It had no way of configuring, and the script itself was pretty badly written. Then I tried KoolDock, which looked much more promising. It was configurable, apparently did the job required, but somehow was "jumpy" in animation. But then I tried the "real thing", and of course it completely outperforms KoolDock, and I guess pretty much everything else. It is beutiful, slick, smooth in animation, has bunch of themes, configurable beyond any imagination... I am considering to drop the plasma-panel (at least until kde 4.1 comes around) as Cairo can be configured with equivalent functionality, even more, while it looks *much* better... I recommend it to everyone. Thanks to Phil and others for the info, and especially the Fedora team who made this beautiful thingy available! :-) Marko -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
