It all depends on what people of Egypt you as asking about. Egypt, during the time of the Ptolemies, was a divided country. There were the Greeks in Alexandria and the native Egyptians. The Alexandrians were the ruling class and the Egyptians the working class, who were not allowed any governmental authority. The Alexandrians with the exception of a few, did not care for Cleopatra. They hated her father (drove him into exile) and hated Cleopatra as his daughter and the fact that Caesar, a Roman, put her on the throne. They fought the Alexandrian War on the side of Cleopatra's brother, against Caesar and Cleopatra. So the Alexandrians viewed Cleopatra's power as something imposed on them by an outside force.
The native Egyptians, although allowed minimal authority in the nomes, or districts that were the divisions of Egypt, were still under the authority of the Greek overseers of their nome. The average Egyptian farmer or business person paid his taxes, obeyed the laws and regulations and went on with his life. It didn't matter to him or her who was ruling up in Alexandria.

What did people think of king Darius?
I am not sure what you are asking. If you mean "did people like him?", then the answer is some did and some didn't. If you mean who do they think he was and how did he come to the throne, then the answer is more interesting. Wikipedia gives a good account of Darius' rise to power. When Cambyses was busy in Egypt, Gaumata, a religious leader usurped the throne, claiming to be Cambyses' brother, Bardiya, whom he resembled. When Cambyses marched against the usurper, he died mysteriously. Darius claimed Cambyses was despondent and killed himself. Herodotus claimed he accidently stabbed himself and died of gangrene. This happened in 522 BC. Darius carried on, ousted the usurper and took the throne. However, in answer to the question of whether the people liked him, Darius spent the first year of his reign putting down rebellions. From a Western point of view, that of Judeo-Christianity, Darius was loved because in 519 BC he decreed the continuation of the reconstruction of the Jerusalem Temple, including financial support, according to Ezra chapter 6. Another Western point of view is that of classic Greece. Here he is not so well liked; he is remembered as the Persian king who attacked Athens and was defeated at Marathon in 490 BC. Darius is also the father of Xerxes whose 500,000 man army was held for three days at Thermopylae by 300 Spartans, giving the Athenians time to evacuate to Salamis.
