Install Cairo Dock In Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04)

Cairo-Dock is a unified interface to your desktop : it provides a dock, a taskbar, and many applets that can be placed either inside the dock or on your desktop, at your convenience ! It uses Cairo / OpenGL to render nice graphics with hardware acceleration, which makes it very smooth and low on CPU. It's highly customisable and comes with a lot of ready-to-use themes.
 

To install it, we need third party repository. login as root :

$ sudo su
$ add-apt-repository ppa:cairo-dock-team/ppa

Then update and install by type :

$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install cairo-dock

If have finished, go to Applications > System Tools > GLX-Dock, then costumize your setting.
Happy Testing....!!
