Bug Description
I'm confused by Docky's behaviour on an Acer TravelMate 4500 with Radeon RV350 (Radeon Mobility 9000).
It doesn't seem to launch at all, whichever window manager I'm using (alternating between openbox-lubuntu and compiz).
I think it is in fact running, and indeed I found after trying to launch a few times, I was running three of them. all doing nothing. Killing all the docky processes and relaunching gives me the following on the command line, but still no visible graphics.

For info it does seem to be something to do with the hardware I'm running as a build which is identical (the system itself was copied across with dd) is capable of launching Docky perfectly well, but on a different graphics card.
I don't think I've specialised the build between one machine and the other in any way which might create an issue, though it's feasible with the very few changes I've made to the window manager+decorator configuration there could be some issue (e.g. I tried once to change the window manager to compiz, but changed it back to openbox-lubuntu).
