Installed Lubuntu 11.04 and Cairo. However, there appears to be no connection between the PCManFM trash can and the trash can in Cairo. Tried Docky and it works ok. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

Is it better if you launch the dock with this command:
cairo-dock -e gnome

Yes, when launched that way the trash can shows files.

@ fabounet: is it possible to use gvfs if it's available (e.g. on LXDE)

Cairo runs fine now on lubuntu 11.04 but there are problems with lubuntu 11.10. If I run cairo from a terminal I get this:

warning : (/build/buildd/cairo-dock-2.4.0~2/src/gldit/cairo-dock-opengl.c:cairo_dock_initialize_opengl_backend:171)
couldn't find an appropriate visual, trying to get one without Stencil buffer
(it may cause some little deterioration in the rendering) ...

Turns out there is a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873756) in ubuntu that is affecting LXDE environments. This is causing some of the problems with the Cairo dock.
By adding .desktop files in ~/.config/autostart and placing the cairo-dock -e gnome in it fixes the problem.

yep, how can we detect an LXDE session ?
or maybe we could detect gvfs directly...

We can simply detect 'gvfsd' process, no?

indeed, but maybe LXDE has some particularities that would justify an lxde-integration plug-in ?

But it can be interesting to use gvfs if it's available even if there is no integration plugin for this DE.
