I saw that Docky started itself after first user selection but i was talking about the need to manually edit the autostart file so that xcompmgr auto-starts but with Cairo this is also not necessary. my problem was with something which word to describe I've learned from you and that is "intellihide" which Cairo does even by default thus saving me Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00847388279508907539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-75903830493608995922013-08-26T12:21:04.706-07:002013-08-26T12:21:04.706-07:00Hi Kaf:

There is an intellihide option in docky settings, if you enable compositing through xcompmgr or compton. Also, docky automatically adds itself to start up, there is no manual addition required.
