Here are a few different options for you. I've used both, but prefer Avant Window Navigator (AWN) over kiba-dock. Links to both projects are below. I have seen other projects but these are the two most popular that I have seen. Have fun.

Avant Window Navigator

Kiba-Dock

No problem, I saw no responses to your post so I figured I'd give my favorite docks for Linux. Have fun with which ever dock you choose.
