    Good Dock For Kubuntu?

    I've been trying to find a Mac style dock and came across a couple of possibilities, however when I install Kool Dock I cant find it anywhere and dont know how to activate it + I've not found a simple explanation of how to install Kiba Dock or even if it works with Kubuntu.

    Does anyone use a dock instead of the taskbar? Is there a way of doing this?

    Thanks in advance!

      thanks. I cant get KXDocker to work unfortunately, it installs fine but wont start. The others dont seem to be supported by Kubuntu at all

        I think the problem is that most dont seem to support 64bit processors kiba seems to work on i386 but not x86_64 so wont install or run under Kubuntu amd64

        anyone know of one that will?

            It will be more helpful if you post what you did to get it to work. Others will appreciate it.
