Cairo-Dock Issues on FreeBSD12 KDE5

Greetings,

In my adventures in setting up an awesome looking FreeBSD desktop I wanted to use Cairo-Dock. My system is all updated, and I have the propitiatory nVidia drivers 390.87 driver installed. I tried the package of Cairo-Dock and nothing could display on the screen. I would a blank bar, and transparent box. When I launch it from Terminal I noticed Cairo-Dock was not built with GLX Support, OpenGL will not be available. Later on It would display Running with OpenGL: 1. It would launch with the -c option

So I removed it, and installed from ports. When I make it, I try to select GLX, I then get an error saying I can use multiple options from the GL radio and which I clearly have EGL unselected. However for fun I unchecked Wayland, and now it installs.

Now if I start Cairo-Dock It still tells me not built with GLX Support, EGL support, and running with OpenGL: 0 The dock will launch -o option I see the same thing. is there something I am doing wrong, or a bug with the software?

Dana
 
I have similar problem. Using nVidia card, have installed
nvidia-driver
nvidia-settings
nvidia-xconfig
Running FreeBSD 11.3 amd64 with KDE5 / Plasma / Kwin

cairo-dock + cairo-dock-plugins installed from official quaterly packages but when I run cairo-dock from shell it prints too many errors and warnings:

The only small square is shown at the bottom of desktop, no icons of applications etc.

When I run it with -c cairo-dock -c it starts as top dock and shows icons but does not use OpenGL:

~/> cairo-dock -c

I have older Boot Environment with FreeBSD 10.4 and KDE4 where cairo-dock is running fine with OpenGL.

How can I solve it?

Is it somehow related to nvidia drivers? https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/cairo-dock-not-uses-nvidia.53730/
