abstar said: if you have this error:

*kiba-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libakamaru.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory*

just do this:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libakamaru.so.0 /usr/lib/libakamaru.so.0

because Now if you try to run kiba-dock from the terminal, you will get another error about the file 'libakamaru.so.0'. This file was installed into /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib.

Thanks so much!

This worked perfectly.

I have attached an AMD_64 .deb as well.

doesn't work for me, i see only dock without icons. i tried as .deb as tar.bz2.

I don't get how to use it either, all i see is this little pixel thick line at the bottom centre of my screen, but nothing that looks like a dock :(

That's the dock guys.... it doesn't come with any as standard.

Drag some icons onto it from the menu :)

didn't work for me...

when I try to create the deb package I get Copying files to the temporary directory...OK

Striping ELF binaries and libraries...OK

Compressing man pages...OK

Building file list...OK

Building Debian package... FAILED!

*** Failed to build the package

Do you want to see the log file?  [y]:

Erasing temporary files...OK

Writing backup package...OK

Deleting temp dir...OK

The log file is:

dpkg-deb - error: (upstream) version («dock») doesn't contain any digit

When I download your deb and install it, it doesn't launch because

Any hint??

By the way, it starts with

*****************************************

*** Warning: contain any digits. dpkg might not like that.

ok, I found the solution... I pressed 3 and gave it a number for the version [SIZE="3"]BUT[/SIZE] the dock has still a black background and the icons too ](*,)

I *think* you'll find the black backgrounds are due to not having compiz/xgl installed ... maybe :)

pau try installing again, i got that first time :P

As for this... its just me having no experience with packaging :) It'll work just fine still.

I thnk you're right, the problem must be xgl... must it be runnig for the kiba dock to work properly? I tried to install it but no way... BTW any suggestion how to install xgl/compiz on an ati ibm thinkpad t43p? What's the difference between compiz and beryl? It's a new fork but what are the differences/avantages/disavantages etc?

Hello,

I wanted to try kiba-dock, but it seems to need a lot of gnome libraries, isn't there a way to have a clean Kde system with this ?

Thanks.

Will this work if I dont have XGL/Compiz?

*_**Edgy kiba-dock package**_*

Deb package for Edgy. And it works GREAT! Just starting to configure it.

this damn cool!! sincerly i'm love with linux!!! long life to open source!! when i showed this fx to my brother, a mac user, he said: "just a copy of mac fx." but i reply to him: "maybe, kind, but the code it's original!"

we know that even this is new for mac, but lets make them think that they have the lastest fx...

nrayever

pd: i can't still believe that making a dv video rendering/codec/decodec on a mac, using final cut and as the codec mpeg4, takes a lot of time. and by a lot of time, i really mean a lot of time!!

I read this thread now, umm... there is a small thing added to the edgy deb linked by Uncle Spellbinder above - able to launch kiba-dock from the menu.

Kiba Dock shows up in the applications browser, which is very nice. I even added it to USP, working great.

Was yours generated by checkinstall? It installed for me but didnt work correctly, kept crashing when i added icons. I tried the deb linked in the last post and it installed more dependencies (libglitz1) that were not installed with yours, after removing your deb and using that one it works just fine.

I installed Kiba with the deb package here and seems to be working correctly. I have this weird blue striped box around it though. Any ideas?

This is the default dock background. Go to your main menu, then select System Tools -> Configuration Editor.

In the editor, navigate to apps -> kiba -> options -> style.

Play here to change your settings.

I have the editor open but I dont see Style. Under Apps -> Kiba --> Options I only see auto_hide, geometry, and physic. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Brian,

If you installed from CVS, then cd to your kiba folder ( ~/kiba-dock ) and run this in a terminal window:

gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=kiba.schemas

This will populate the configuration tree. If you installed from a deb, I don't know how to do it :-#

When I run: gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=kiba.schemas

It fails with: I/O warning : failed to load external entity "kiba.schemas" Failed to open `kiba.schemas': No such file or directory

Wow. Kiba-dock is awesome. Thanks for the howto.

Sorry :)

PriceChild said: That's the dock guys.... it doesn't come with any as standard.

Drag some icons onto it from the menu :)

Did that, and all the icons show as the Firefox icon (the Ubuntu default icon). I installed on my machine at work (Dapper - the one with the problems is Edgy) at it worked fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Tom

Well, I installed it, tried it out for about half an hour, and even though I love the idea, it's gone now.

Reasons:

• I can't get the icons to be aligned as I want them to be
• For some reason, when I try to drag the icons to the place I want them to be, every single icon goes to the top-left corner of the screen
• If I hold my mouse over an icon for a few seconds without clicking and then take the mouse away again, every single icon bounces all over the screen

Too bad, hope it'll be better with the next release. Anyway, good job so far for making it, hope it'll get better :)

actually, to keep icons order it seems we have to st dock model to *rope* but, it works strange here. icons don't stay on the bar. another thing that would be great to have is an arrow or something like that under icons of programs already opened, and something such a task-list ability (dock opened windows that have no icons set in the docker). I see in the feature request for kiba thread on beryl forum that these features aren't coming soon, so i keep usin kxdocker for the moment.

pau said: ok, I found the solution... I pressed 3 and gave it a number for the version

I was having the same problem and this solved it for me as well.

I followed your directions but when i got to "sudo checkinstall" it said command not found. ANy ideas on what I've done wrong (P.S. I'm very new to Linux)

hawks1282 said: I followed your directions but when i got to "sudo checkinstall" it said command not found. ANy ideas on what I've done wrong

(P.S. I'm very new to Linux)``` sudo aptitude install checkinstall

Any chance you can offer some wisdom on my issue? All the icons default to whatever the first icon is that I drag there. When I hover over them, I can see the "correct" icon pulsing underneath, and I've tried using the icon editor (which displays the icons correctly in the preview).

I'm using 0.1-1.2 (the i386 deb from the beryl forums, but I had the same problem with the previous version as well).

It works fine on my work computer which runs Dapper rather than Edgy.

Thanks, Tom

Tried sudo aptitude install checkinstall. Now it reports that it couldn't find any package with the name checkinstall . . .

Maybe I used the wrong/incomplete directions, i followed the procedure described in the first post of this thread.

Thanks for the quick response though

Never mind, i just got it. Didn't have the deb in my sources.list file. Thanks for the help

Ok..anyone fancy shoving me in the right direction??

Got beryl running fine on edgy and have tried this "how to" but am a bit stuck after the download tar.bz2 part.. I`ve not had dealings with "tar.bz" type stuff yet so after downloading to desktop OR home and trying to run those commands im just getting told "no such file or directory" after the second command.

Ive tried extracting the stuff first too but just seem to be getting nowhere. Everything went well till i got to that stage and realised i aint had to install this way before.........

Yes this is what happens when you get to used of "automatix and synaptic" but if anyone would like to point out what im doing wrong OR not doing full stop i`d be ever so greatfull...

Got beryl working (mostly)so cheers for them how to`s anyway pricey.......

EDIT....typical.Just found the "deb" package which i know how to install so just need to suss out how to use it now :twisted: Got some blue "roller" thing for my troubles...great:rolleyes: ...lol cheers anyway...having fun figuring configuring

sussed it:mrgreen: .....now if i could only make it rain:-k

Has anyone managed to get the settings right so that in rope model the dock ALWAYS puts the icons down in one straight line. It only happens about 30% of the time for me after a reboot and I have to restart the dock (or change models) normally a couple of times before they are all straight!

Having said that, it does look really cool!

PriceChild out of interest are you maintaining your .deb for this? I.e. have you updated it to the very latest version (I think thats 0.113 or something like that?)

Calv

I followed this and everything worked. When I run it all I get is a black box. When I drag icons to it, it just makes the black box wider.

Anyone figured out how to make it transparent, without Beryl/Compiz?

Thanks!

I'm gonna package a new deb tonight.

And you NEED a composite manager insalled to make it transparent :)

Anonii said: Anyone figured out how to make it transparent, without Beryl/Compiz?

use xcompmgr

sudo aptitude install xcompmgr

How do I uninstall without it taking half my OS with it? Thank you :)

i think life is easier with kiba without beryl/xgl

Lopsicle said: How do I uninstall without it taking half my OS with it? Thank you :)uninstall kiba-dock?

Could you give us the terminal output?

Lopsicle said: How do I uninstall without it taking half my OS with it? Thank you :)

if installed fellowing this howto (using checkinstall) then:

dpkg -r kiba-dock 

will remove only kiba-dock. eventually you can use gtk-orphan to remove unused libs if any left.

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

I keep getting this after following the installation guide. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

========================= Installation results =========================== make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.

**** Installation failed. Aborting package creation.

Cleaning up...OK

Bye.

hope this might help for anyone not wanting to build the package...there is a .deb package for kiba-dock here http://forum.beryl-project.org/topic-4930-edgy-kiba-dock-package

it works for me quite well...

All the download links are dead, can anyone please update them.

I'm pissed about that too. Beryl-project.org is down so I can't get the latest kiba-dock. I've done it before on a previous install when the site wasn't down but now I can't. Would be very thankful if someone uploaded their .deb that they got there. thanks!

it does not work for me... i get a black box at the bottom and the icons i add to it disappear on mouse over ...

Well i did what was written on the first page but when i type kiba-dock it gives a "command not found" error. So what's wrong with it, i'm using dapper also i don't have xgl on my computer. Could it be because of that?

Here's the message I get from terminal

got desktop file: x-nautilus-desktop:///CD-RW%2FDVD%2BRW%20Drive.volume
** Message: Cant handle Relative path
Use a programm for dragging wich sends a fullpath
xfce4-appfinder for example should work

Have Edgy with Beryl, but Beryl is not running....however this looks more like a gnome issue perhaps?

I get the same problem as other people, nothing is added to the bar when I drag it. I installed from the .deb, and it claims I had no dependency issues. I tried doing the make, but it wanted to downgrade one of my packages, so I decided against the compile.

Edit: Heres the message from terminal when I try to install the base packages

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libgl1-mesa-dev: Depends: mesa-common-dev (= 6.5.1~20060817-0ubuntu3) but 6.5.1+cvs20060824 is installed.
Resolving dependencies...
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Downgrade the following packages:
mesa-common-dev [6.5.1+cvs20060824 (now) -> 6.5.1~20060817-0ubuntu3 (edgy)]

wats with the ugly blue background. how do u get rid of it!

64bit version http://www.dpb.org.uk/ubuntu/edgy_6.10/kiba-dock_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb

Wonderful app!!! Fun, cool, usable ...

I got my "blacked out" problem fixed. I installed xcompmrg and then enable "Composite"

Section "Extensions"
#    Option         "Composite" "Disable"
    Option         "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

BUT now I have a different problem. Kiba-dock works well, but the apps come up without my color scheme ( WaSP 2.0 ). I.e. Evolution menu bars are fine but my panes and folders are basic black and white. I've also noticed the "icon-editor", and "gset-kiba" have no real scheme/colors/theme.

My build is from the CVS.

Think I'll try the deb package.

Looks like I found my problem. My KDE GTK settings weren't happy.

Hi all,

I am having a problem with Kiba-dock. I am on Kubuntu Edgy. I installed Beryl yesterday and it is working fine. I installed Kiba-dock by downloading the source and ./configure make make install. It did not work. I later installed the .deb package too.

There are 2 problems with my kiba-dock:

1. It gives funny message like :

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168 Major opcode: 145 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168 Major opcode: 145 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device

1. The command kiba-dock does not give me anything.

<EDIT> The solution to both problems is as folllows:

Solution to 1. The error messages are due to wacom devices in /etc/X11/xorg.conf Take a backup of your xorg.conf before editing and comment the following sections:

#Section "InputDevice"

Driver "wacom"

Identifier "stylus"

option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to

option "Type" "stylus"

option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY

# /dev/input/event

# for USB

#EndSection

#Section "InputDevice"

Driver "wacom"

Identifier "eraser"

option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to

option "Type" "eraser"

option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY

# /dev/input/event

# for USB

#EndSection

#Section "InputDevice"

Driver "wacom"

Identifier "cursor"

option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to

option "Type" "cursor"

option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY

# /dev/input/event

# for USB

#EndSection

and furher down in: Section "ServerLayout"

InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"

InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"

InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"

Solution to 2. This may seem dumb, but all you have to do is run populate-dock.sh </EDIT>

Hi,

I've installed it and the installation worked fine but when I now try to run it by typing "kiba-dock" is says that there is no file or directory... anyone who has a clue?

by the way I am running beryl, does that make a difference?

regards aliyanage

First off, thanks PriceChild for the great HowTo. .. My first CVS build I already feel like Mr smarty pants...... My question is rather simple and hopefully it has happened to some4one in here and I will get a simple solution. After adding icons to the dock, I get these Blue arrows [>>] in groups of 2-4 scattered on the screen pointing to the dock, to let me know I have added an icon i guess... problem is.. those arrows stay and they are on top of all windows...doesn't matter what I am doing.. I have the arrows covering part of my view... how can I take care of this?

Deb package for Edgy. And it works GREAT! Just starting to configure it.

ATTENTION: Can someone please update this link. No one viewing this thread now can download the working .deb, since beryl-project.org crashed since the original post. Can someone please post a link to the working beryl-project.org .deb. Thankx!

I have installed Kiba-dock from source, seems to be working fine, except that I can only run it as root. When I run it as my user, nothing happens, but the process stays open. I'm running from terminal using 'kiba-dock' ('sudo kiba-dock' for root).

This wasn't an issue at first, except that any launcher I click from the dock runs as root b/c of that. Not cool! I configured and made ('./configure' & 'make') as my user... are there any ideas as to why I can only run it as root?

If I were you, I would follow my instructions in the original thread and build from cvs source.

If anyone is still having problems with the odd blue background its rather a simple fix if you guys haven't figured it out yet... Sorry haven't gone through all the pages on this topic.

in terminal type > gset-kiba

Then go to Color/Alpha

You can feel free to lower all of the settings to 0 if you want your dock to be totally transparent

Otherwise you can do what I did and switch anything that says Gnome-Dock in the Style/Misc. tab to Gradient... then mess around with the color settings just to have a nice tone in the background, and remove the border completely by setting it to 0.

If you are getting the black background, either install XGL (AIGLX does not seem to work for me when I tried to replicate that issue) or, if you prefer not to... try installing xcompmgr (another window manager) to sort out your issue.

sudo apt-get install xcompmgr

once installed

xcompmgr to start it up.

Hope that Helps.

Just a note to you [SIZE="4"]KDE[/SIZE] users out there....

You will find two other packages in the ubuntu repositories that may work much more easily for you:

ksmoothdock and kooldock <--- This is a more updated version of ksmoothdock that is apparently still maintained

gl/hf : )

I'll note for the next time, as it seems kiba is working wonderfully on my kde box

I'm currently not using the dock, b/c it uses too many resources.  What were the names of the alternatives to kiba-dock?  something like kdocker.... or something like that.  Anyone?

Why don't people read howtos?

This was in the first post Blario!

PriceChild said: Why don't people read howtos?

This was in the first post Blario! Obviously! Where do you think I got it from?! Obviously ppl weren't seeing it because of all the problems they were having. Anyways, in case you can't tell, the howto wasn't complete from the start; Hence all the problems that everyone was having. The originally posted deb definitely doesn't work; Hence all the pleas for a working deb from the second forum admin that posted. It was an Amateur attempt. Of course there's nothing wrong with that, seeing that there was nothing like it before; someone has to do it; and at least it pointed people in the right direction :)

PriceChild, I had followed this howto to build kiba-dock from source and it was working great... as time went on, my system seemed to be lagging a lot, <top> shows a high percentage of cpu usage by x.org and kiba-dock. I was using xcomp as my conpositing engine.. not sure if anyone had faced this issue...also, even decreasing the hide area to a very low value o autohide didn't help as the dock keeps on popping out when my cursor is miles away from the dock area... this was verry annoying as you are trying to scroll down or do something else in an open window and kiba keeps on popping up

I follow the steps and it's not working for me, I got:

Copying files to the temporary directory...OK Striping ELF binaries and libraries...OK Compressing man pages...OK Building file list...OK Building Debian package... FAILED! *** Failed to build the package

Any ideas..Thanks?:-k

wow gettin it to accept an icon is a mission :| after about 5 tries each icon it decides itll let me add it :S

Got a better idea, copy .desktop files from /usr/share/applications(/kde) to ~/.kiba-dock :D

Only problem is you cant minimise windows to it like in OS X :( until it can do that... :(

i have this problem too. anyone help please...

I'm just guessing latest cvs is broken... and I don't have a working cvs so you'll just have to wait sorry.

I waited. It's fixed. I checked the thread on beryl-project forums.

Is it supposed to look all funky like this?

chiklit said: Is it supposed to look all funky like this?That's it :)

Drag launchers on from menus/panels to add them.

right click and change the settings with one of the options.

yir...dunno why they made it look like that but you can customise it to how you want it. heres a shot of mine

btw i dont actually use it like that...kiba dock doesny have any taskbar functionality so i just have it on the right side as an app launcher...still need kicker at the bottom of the screen for the taskbar and k-menu...

if there was a way to get the kmenu, and OS X style tasks (screenshots or even icons) on the dock id be happy :D

(i know you can do that with kxdocker but i like kiba docks pulse mouseover effect :D and the other cwazy effects :D)

-RashidWhat deb?

The one listed in the first post of this thread: http://stashbox.org/6310/kiba-dock_0.1-1.2_i386.deb

Relating a different problem.

After running ... ``` ./autogen.sh

I solved it by using the .deb from the original post.


Vic.

Wow! Thanks for this. Kiba-dock is by far the best docking app I've seen yet for Ubuntu.

After pressing "3" and giving it version "1" it installs and works great. Thanks!

What am I to make of these?

At the end of ./autogen.sh (I didn't notice this first time and went ahead to the next step)

checking for LGTOP... configure: error: Package requirements (libgtop-2.0 >= 2.0.0) were not met:

No package 'libgtop-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 LGTOP_CFLAGS
and LGTOP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

navneeth install libgtop-2.0 from the repos and try again.

In which repo can I find this file? I think I have the uni and multiverse repos, but I get a message saying that no such package was found.

navneeth said: In which repo can I find this file? I think I have the uni and multiverse repos, but I get a message saying that no such package was found.

I'd get the msg that "libgtop" (LGTOP) was not present.

I solved it by using the .deb from the original post.

Vic.

Hope that helps!!!

victorbrca, Thanks. It worked, i.e. I now have kiba-dock installed, but since I don't have beryl, there's an ugly black border. :(

Hi, the .deb works, but today in one update (0.1.1+cvs20061208+3) kiba-dock dont work ](*,) the error is:

yep... same for me...

me too

Deb was working for me until i configured it to bounce on my over. After that it would place everything on the top-left-corner and all the launchers are bunched together. I set all the settings back to default but that didn't work. I deleted the .kiba-dock folder and uninstall and reinstalled it and now im getting the following message

(kiba-dock:7806): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry: assertion `monitor_num < GDK_SCREEN_X11 (screen)->num_monitors' failed

Kiba works fine if I run it as another use. Can someone help?

what does this mean, and also i did all that was said but when i goto 'make' there is no make file, so i just used the .deb provided

I also get a strange error after installing kiba-dock from the deb provided:

same error as 4lex the prebuilt 64deb installs but won't run any ideas?

how do I get this dock to be a little more subtle? Because of its insane physics, the crazy thing bounces all around and won't even line up in a straight line; instead icons clog up and sit on top of each other; they're useless like that. So how can I get to be more subtle?

Also, can I control spacing between the icons? again due to the physics, they sometimes end up too close to each other.

Thanks.

Thanks.Right click it and change the model type from rope to something else. say spring.

Everything can be customised on the right click menu if you find "gset-kiba"

Now, all we need is a wiki page. :)

Any cool docks that don't need XGL/AIXGL?

PriceChild said: Right click it and change the model type from rope to something else. say spring.

Everything can be customised on the right click menu if you find "gset-kiba" I know, I've tried, I just can't get the damn thing to stay still! And I didn't see any spacing options in gset.

When I install kiba I'm having a problem that when the launcher is stared I can't open the system tray icon/tool. It says that the image required can't be found. Here is the error being thrown out. It would be much appreciated if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks

Any other solution? I tried to install compiz and did not get it running, which is the reason why I take beryl in the first place. I don't want to install to many things which I don't need, especially with things which are in constant development.

Also, I thought that kiba was originally written for beryl. It is after all included in the beryl repositories, not in in the compiz... Or did I get that wrong?

edit: problem solved by reinstallin libxcomposite. No need to install compiz!

kiba is running now, although I have this weird blue fframe effect as well.

edit

I fixed the error I was receiving by installing all packages under libxcomposite in synaptic.

Now I'm getting this problem after the install goes fine ...

btw, someone already said that libtool is required, i think we just need to wait for the original poster to edit his post.

I thing that this error is quite common ... try to search answer on this page: http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewforum.php?f=38 There's a lot of that ;). We must wait until kiba site will be lauched. Oh, and one more thing ... sometimes cvs are broken cuz danielb is developing kiba all the time and not everything is going like he wants.

huzzah! its complete! i removed the entire cvs folder and started fresh, the developer must of fixed something since when i downloaded it.

attached is a working .deb of kiba-dock. (sry it says 1-1 for version, i just put whatever, i just wanted to get it done)

I dunno about it 'working' fully. The systray icon seems to be broken, at least for me. It complained about it not finding kiba_24.png, so I copied it manually. After that, the kiba-systray.py is trying to launch the kiba dock from /usr/bin/ and can't find it and just sorta fails. Besides that, the new taskbar item is nice. I just wish you could adjust which side of the tray the icons appear in.

OMG it worked :-) thats the first time I have ever made a package... tho by tutorial, sweet... I just upgraded to edgy eft yesterday... got beryl running quite nicely and now the kiba dock is working Thanks a million for the awesome tutorial *cheers*

I get these errors.

http://www.dpb.org.uk/ubuntu/edgy_6.10/

pretty cool stuff

I am having same problem. But I don't see package for i386. Does anybody know how I can resolved this problem or where can I get working package. I tried package from rabid9797 posted in few posts above but it has same issue.

Hi. I've been looking for a dock-app like kiba-dock since hoary (a long time). Great, I found it in the internet-jungle at last. I've downloaded and installed the debian-package that rabid9797 posted (#141).

However, if I launch kiba-dock without parameters, the icons appear in black&white, and then they start swirling around like sprite-shows in old C=64 demos. They continue to do that until I kill the app.

If I launch the app with --enable-tray, I get a segmentation-fault.

I'm running Beryl, and help is greatly appreciated :-)

Attached is kiba-dock (w/ the latest cvs at the time of writing for i386, for anyone who doesn't feel like building it from source:D .

How did you go around the kiba-dock: symbol lookup error: kiba-dock: undefined symbol: g_type_register_static_simple

I'm stuck there

I gave it a try but no go.

(kiba-dock:20780): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_str_has_suffix: assertion `str != NULL' failed

Will check again a later version.

Everything seems to be working quite fine... I just followed the guide in the first post. Had to change the version (as it was not a number), but apart from that, it works really great.

When changing the model (rope, wobbly, spring for all), it crashes, but the changes are saved. So when I restart the program, it has the selected model.

hi everyone

i installed all packages and everything correctly

but when i run "kiba-dock" in only opens the folder where it got installed...

so then i tryed to run specifyin the file (which btw installed on my personal folder) /home/me/kiba-dock/dock/kiba-dock

and nothin happened -___-

any ideas what might be happenin?

hope someone can help me

thanks in advance

*[COLOR="Sienna"]I have the same problem, please help [/COLOR]!!!*

Hey, it works perfectly for me, except that when I close the terminal that was open to start it, kiba dock closes as well. Any ideas?

pleeeeease heeelp, ive been lookin around different forums for this but no one has an answers, can somebody help please?

p.d. my problem is a few quotes above

That's how terminal started apps are supposed to work. Try alt+f2 and start it.

Ok, I have no idea what all those commands were, but I had to do make-install (per README file) after all those. Also, it looked like garbage:

...but that's probably because I don't know what I'm doing.

It doesn't look nice when you don't have Beryl installed ;)

Hi Guys, anybody had problem with starting kiba-dock comand like mine below?

*symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/kiba-dock/libtaskbar.so: undefined symbol: gdk_screen_get_window_stack*

Any ideas for the solution?

Thanks A lot before

command "kiba-dock" not found... ???

That's what I got too.

sudo make install then it works.

i get an error when trying to sudo checkinstall, it says

Building Debian package... FAILED!

*** Failed to build the package

hamster_billy said: sudo make install

then it works.

Your method doesn't work for me. I type in "kiba-dock" and the command isn't found. I use sudo make install and bash says there is no rule to make install. Help please! I've installed kiba-dock but don't know how to run it!

this thing is hillarious!!!!

Two questions. I dont have compiz/xgl (cant make it work) and I`m using xfwm4 as compositing manager, Does kiba-dock work if I use xfwm4 instead of xcompmgr? And Is there any taskbar module? If there is, can it be disabled, how?

Hey guys, when you are successful, please post your settings here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=365718

DankE!

zetsumei said: i get an error when trying to sudo checkinstall, it says

Building Debian package... FAILED!

*** Failed to build the package

same here, when i check it, i get this: dpkg-deb - error: (upstream) version (`dock') doesn't contain any digits dpkg-deb: 1 errors in control file /var/tmp/TXqFaXTCdUleBmfFFWfrl/dpkgbuild.log (END)

ive tried install kiba dock several times now, and i cant get it to work right when i check the install

ok, i fixed my problem from before, but it still has the black background. ive read that you have to have beryl install, and for all i know, i installed it correctly. is there anyway to check to see if it isnt install correctly? i have an ati x1400 video card if that makes a difference

nevermind, i got it to work. had to revert to beryl 0.1.99

hy I just installed it on feisty but it loocks strange, instead of the icons it shows up small preview of opened window and if I clik on the bar and try to open kiba-utils > icon edit I get this error message in a pop up window: This problem report does not apply to a packaged program. (/usr/bin/kiba-icon-editor.py) I installed with sudo make install, since sudo checkinstall did not make it start (I do have chekinstall installed)

Hi,

is anyone else experiencing problems with the autohide function? When I start kiba-dock it works okey but after I launch a program it never hides again.

bvanaerde said: It doesn't look nice when you don't have Beryl installed ;)

Yeah but how do I get beryl installed. I have the specs below on the laptop and i can't seem to find a driver that works. Or at least instructions to work! Prolly just a issue between chair and keyboard but still.

same froblem as freakavoid , i did somethin wrong or the kiba is buggy I put it to autohide but if lounch a prog it doesn't hide anymore, also some icons do show in proper size but ones clicked they get resized smaller??? strange

I installed with make install, chekinstall did not work, Id like to remove it completly, and maybe retry installation, please help me or post a usefull link , thanks!

Yep CVS server currently down, gnomefreeks .deb not working properly -> PrinceChild knows

Thanks for that I won't even bother with it. I saw the videos on google though it looks sweet.

i installed kiba-dock but the background of the dock shows all these weird blue and red lines, how do i make that go away?

so is the server coming back up? or just give up :-/ looked really neat

this is what i get when i run kiba-dock, i've tried restarting several times (it does nothing) also tried reinstalling a couple of time also no luck. i'm running ubuntu 6.10 and beryl

check out the screenshot

I get the same. Let's wait until it gets fixed, hopefully.

ubuntu admins come to our aid :( we can't run kiba :(

Use the packages detailed at the top of the original post until kiba people sort things out.

I tried installing a .deb package, and had that same problem. Lets all stick to avant-window-nav until this gets sorted. kiba looks really promising, so lets wait and see.

yea i'm using the one posted at the beginning of this thread, it works perfectly except for the background being blue stripes

can't wait to get kiba running properly :)

I am also having the same problem - it comes up with a blue-lined background, as seen in amaan's screenshot.

I also thought I should mention that after installing the .deb - it wouldn't run.. there was an error stating that libglitz was missing.

Installing libglitz1 fixed this.. but this should clearly be dependency, and get installed automatically by apt.

Looks like we all have the same problem of getting blue-line background, by using the .deb package on the front page, hopefully the problem would be solve soon.

I want to get kiba-dock working well.

Same problem with the blue background here. Having said that... somehow I'm kinda used to having a regular panel with transparency autohide. Seems way more useful than kiba to me. Wouldn't mind trying kiba once its fixed though - nice eye candy to show off to the windows people.

Whenever I type kiba-dock in terminal or alt-f2 it just doesn't do anything. I don't get an error message or anything. In terminal it just hangs at a cursor...... any ideas?

i have run into a problem here any one know what is happening

I got the blue stripes too! I will keep an eye on this thread for updates!

still nothing? damnit lol

I using old one which I found from http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=165

And it works quite well, the blue stripes can be changed away from the settings.

Here's an older deb package from link above. Worked like a charm for me.

I cant run kiba-dock.

It appears an error or sth:

"kiba-dock: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/kiba-dock/libtaskbar.so: undefined symbol: gdk_screen_get_window_stack"

I dont know what is it.

Do you have the dependencies met?

Here is something else -- I am using XFCE (xubuntu). I am having the blue stripes problem, but when I run gset-kiba there is no save button -- so there is no save for my new options. I am using the deb file from page 1. Is there a new one, or something else to fix it?

I can't find the source to compile it myself :(

Same me I don't know how to fix it?

To everyone with the "blue stripe" problem!...

If you would read the forum, people are saying they fixed it using the package bg1256 posted in this thread. However, please note this is not the newest version.

The reason for this problem seems to be that the packages provided in Treviño's Beryl-SVN Ubuntu Repository are trying to run the latest kiba-dock with outdated libraries.

Personally, I got kiba-dock working by simply using the package provided at Treviño's Beryl-SVN Ubuntu Repository, before the newest one. I assume this package probably still works with the older kiba-dock libraries, and therefore it loads correctly. You can grab that package here. Also note that this is not the newest version, either.

Good luck, guys. :)

I installed from the original svn from the first post. I got this error:

kiba-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libakamaru.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

What do I do? I am running Edgy, with Beryl 0.2.0 with XGL.

Hmmm I can't figure this out...

*sticks a warning back up*

Ohhh good. :(

It's OK tho, because I found of the binaries that worked. I _believe_ it was kiba-dock_0.1-1.2_i386.deb

Hey if it isnt much trouble for you, I would like you to help me with this problem.

I did exactly everything as you said except FOR the version naming thing which I didnt know how to do so i left that out,(just naming anyway rite?)

Then when i type "kiba-dock" i get this error saying that it cant find it. http://img379.imageshack.us/img379/5044/screenshotix5.png

Help me pls

the SVN server seems to be working now?

ive followed the guide but getting the following error

anyone else had any more luck?

PriceChild said: Just pointing out i attached my Edgy package on the first post.

I don't see the deb. Where is it? I see one link in the first post. There are debs, but not kiba-dock. I tried the hot-babes deb and that is nice.

theres just been an update for kiba-dock and its plugins but i still get the

Illegal instruction (core dumped)

error message

i used to have it working as a windows task bar on an older version but cant remember which version anyone got any advice or error messages? im pretty keen to get this working again

if you have this error:

*kiba-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libakamaru.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory*

just do this:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libakamaru.so.0 /usr/lib/libakamaru.so.0

because Now if you try to run kiba-dock from the terminal, you will get another error about the file 'libakamaru.so.0'. This file was installed into /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib.

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libakamaru.so.0 /usr/lib/libakamaru.so.0

because Now if you try to run kiba-dock from the terminal, you will get another error about the file 'libakamaru.so.0'. This file was installed into /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib.

Works!

Edit: too fast saying it works, after I made reboot I get a Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I got it to work, but everything is black accept the taskbar and dock, any ideas?

You need to install and running beryl.

Artificial Intelligence said: You need to install and running beryl.or compiz, xcompmgr etc...

Built er today and black screen then eventually crashes -- wait for a fix I guess

I get this error when I try to start kiba-dock

failed to load /usr/lib/kiba-dock/liblauncher.so

/usr/lib/kiba-dock/liblauncher.so: undefined symbol: kiba_exec * glibc detected * kiba-dock: double free or corruption (out): 0x08089448 ***

and then some thing about backtrace, then at the end "Aborted (core dumped)"

The Kiba-Dock checkinstall fails on me that is why I am having no luck --

Yeah I'm having the same problem. Can anyone help?

EDIT

Now when I run the second autogen.sh I get:

No package 'akamaru' found

I'm sure I installed the first package properly...

I also get segmentation fault when trying to launch the kiba-dock. Anyone fixing this soon? I did everything like the step-by-step said.

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'm sure the others are configured, I did everything according the the OP of this thread. I am kind of lost from here. Any help or points in the right direction would be amazingly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Hi, just followed the How-to. After starting kiba-dock from terminal , i get this error:

@kiba-dock 
kiba-dock: symbol lookup error: kiba-dock: undefined symbol: cairo_glitz_surface_create

I have gltiz packages installed (dev too) Any idea how to solve that?

Sdr4wkc4b, you need to install subversion.

a simple 'sudo apt-get install subversion' should do the trick.

I just tried the tutorial again, and I get the same error as litachil.

Trying the page 20 .deb starts kiba-dock, but when I try to add any icons, it segfaults, giving no error besides 'Segmentation Fault (core dumped)

hi guys i just wondering how to uninstall the kiba-dock based on this method of installation?

thanks

Hi guys!

Do you know how to lock the dock to the desktop?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks i got further now, but at the make step i get another error which translates to: cannot find a makefile or target.

Don't know if it's alread been posted, so if it has, forgive me.

There seems to be a problem with beryl and kiba-dock, that when beryl is loaded, then kiba-dock loaded, it seems to endlessly spin the cube. I am not sure which app is the culprit, but I hope there is an updated kiba-dock package out there somewhere, or perhaps a work-around.

i've installed kiba-dock, all the levels were just fine , no errors, installed the .deb package after , all goes OK,

but when i type kiba-dock, it says command unkown and i havent seen any kiba-dock file

any help ?

Indeed, somehow it screwed up my beryl really bad... Took me a while to get things back to normal, for me it's no kiba-dock until I have plenty of time to fix any problems it might cause.

I found what the problem was... at least in my case. I had "Computer" on the dock, and the cube always spun endlessly when I opened "Computer" from the dock.

So I looked at the short cut settings in kiba-settings and it displayed this: nautilus --no-desktop computer:

Through a little trial, I removed all instances so that it looked like this:

nautilus computer:

I then launched "Computer" from Kiba-dock and the cube didn't spin! However, there was a hitch, when I closed the "Computer" window, Kiba-Dock had the triangle notification still on the icon indicating the app was still launched. Clicking on the icon did not launch "Computer". The only option was to close kiba-dock and relaunch it.

If I turned off "Spin Cube" in beryl settings manager with the unmodified "Computer" settings, the cube won't spin.

I think the line: --no-desktop is the culprit as I think it tries to interact with all the virtual desktops by trying to reveal the window on all virtual desktops, giving it focus, which would make the cube spin endlessly.

I havn't found a workable solution yet without sacrificing a feature, so I don't have "Computer" on the dock.

Every time i am trying to use the debien package.. it is telling the package is corrupted :( what to do?

In the akamaru folder ./autogen.sh is working.. but in the other folders i am facing problems: In kibadock folder there are three sub directories: branches, tags and trunk. There is autogen.sh in trunk. I used that, then typed in "make" and it gave me following msg: ****************************************************************8 user@ubuntu:~/kiba-dock/kibadock/trunk$ make /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck /bin/sh: Can't open ./config.status make: * [config.status] Error 2 ******************************************************************** Can anyone please help?

I tried to download the .deb file uploaded by jasnix... it is telling me that the package is corrupted :(

I just checked out the CVS and built from that.

check this wiki out strait from kiba-dock.org

This worked perfect in feisty ! Now this is called DOCK ! (no Cairo-dock, no kde docks :) )

I have attached my screen shot.

I am able to add only .desktop files i think. I tried dragging the Computer Icon in desktop and the volumes, but they were not ready to sit in the dock :)

Got it !

right click kiba-dock-->Kiba utils-->systray

now you can quit :)

LoL icon now in panel .....tq :guitar:

Is there any way to have a "Run Application..." launcher in the kiba dock, like you can in the gnome panels?

ok, so i instlled kibadock using this

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

im using edgy

anyways

how do i make it keep running after i close the terminal i used to open it?

and why wont beryl work right when its open? like, the cube wont rotate with the mouse unless i use the keyboard keys, the center button wont work at all...

Hold ALT-F2 and type the command in there. You can set it as a startup by going to system>Preferences>Sessions>Startup

hey, thanks man..

it still crashes lol.. either way, ill get it working with a fresh install in about a month.

thats when i decide weather not i want 7.04.. lol

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?

bump :(

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

nope, didn't work

=\

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

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

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 :(

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

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?

i did the first step... and i got this...

Should i procced...?What about the error i got from the server... Thanx...:)

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

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>

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

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>

Check them in synaptic would be easist

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>

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

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>

Try with

sudo aptitude install libgnome-desktop-dev

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! [S>

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

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

yes, i have nvidia card.. also this working!

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? and what do you mean with: typ kiba-dock to run? type in terminal? I get command not found

thx

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

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.

$ kiba-dock

Illegal instruction (core dumped) and this is what the terminal says if I try to open gset-kiba.

$ gset-kiba

TheRingmaster said: 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.

Is anyone ever going to create a deb for kiba-dock?

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/

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?

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 ??

Oops!

Sorry for last post. The complete instalation instruction is at the website: http://www.kiba-dock.org/components/com_mambowiki/index.php?title=Installing_Kiba-Dock

With THIS installation procedure, the thing WORKS !!!:p

when i try the following command

./autogen.sh

i get an error message that says

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".

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

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?

Hello im totaly new to Linux and have no ideo whats were :) i tryed to install dock but i get this message after i type ./autogen.sh

[FONT="Trebuchet MS"][SIZE="3"]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?[/SIZE][/FONT]

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

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

How do I get these icons to be crisp?

Question...

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

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.......????????

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

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

When trying to build kiba-plugins:

dannymichel said: 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.

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](*,)](*,)](*,)

*( 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.

um whats this mean? after i put ./autogen.sh i get checking for intltool... *Error*: You must have intltool installed to compile akamaru Where do i get intltool from

i got that same error. go to package master and install the intltool package.

Now I got a new problem.. 1st the ./autogen.sh file isnt being found in the kibadock folder. i had to go look for it in another folder called trunks. and after i found it. the make command wuldnt run:S:S

I seem to have the same problem!

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.

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

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...

cd akamaru/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../kibadock/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../kibaplugins/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../gsetkiba/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall

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

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

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

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

omega@ubuntu:~/kiba-dock/akamaru$ cd omega@ubuntu:~$ intltool bash: intltool: command not found

I got errs. Any one help :((

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?

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:

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

sudo apt-get install libgnome-desktop-dev

For the gnome-desktop 2.0

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.

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?

I got this:

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.

pnoque@nixlinuxbox:~/kiba-dock/gsetkiba$ make make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Any ideas?

cd akamaru/ ./autogen.sh make sudo checkinstall cd ../kibadock/ ./autogen.sh make sudo checkinstall cd ../kibaplugins/ ./autogen.sh make sudo checkinstall cd ../gsetkiba/ ./autogen.sh make sudo checkinstall

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

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

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

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!

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?

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?

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?

download the svn from sourceforge, its working!

andrewsomething said: 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

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

ok, well i have it running now, but i may be a bit slow here. how do i add launchers to it...i want ot add firefox but i don't know how

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

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

Best Regards, Fotis

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.

keenish27 said: 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.

I REALY REALLY REALLY NEED SOMEONES HELP thanks in advanced my kiba-dock is sooo slow i cant click anything when the icons are moving this happens when i enable physics

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

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.

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.

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 ^^

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.

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.

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 for i386

# Treviño's Ubuntu feisty EyeCandy Repository (GPG key: 81836EBF - DD800CD9)

Update your system

sudo apt-get update

There shameful copying over. Now search synaptic again and see if anything new pops up for you. :)

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 said: 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!

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

If you don't mind not getting the latest of the latest (development release that is).

You can use this:

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...

no probs gourgi

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?

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.

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:

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.

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

how?

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

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?

how i can close it?
