We need much more info.

First, always report the version of Ubuntu (or whatever OS) you are running.

What version of Docky is it. How was it installed (Lucid repo? PPA? source?)?

Start it from a terminal with '--debug' and paste any output here.

Also, if it seems frozen, then open a second terminal and do:

  kill -SIGQUIT $(ps x|grep Docky.exe|grep -v grep|awk '{ print $1; }')

This should dump some additional output to the *first* terminal. We need that as well.

Same here. Running Karmic Koala and since the docky-update two days ago (in the repository) it's practically dead. Doesn't start when I boot, doesn't load manually. Am trying to install from the download of 2.0.1 right now.

Same issue here. Docky won't start after the last update. I flushed all the gconf and .local settings have followed the steps above for a thread dump.
