Thanks for the added info . . . I ran some of these items thru synaptic and
compton did show up as available, but showed it as a "file" when I went for
the screenshot . . . .  I added compiz, but that doesn't seem to have
provided me with a GUI route . . . .  I want easy, seems like XFCE provides
the simple solution to the issue of the blue shadow around the cairo dock
feature . . . .
