Customize Compiz Fusion effects In Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu 8.04(Hardy Heron) comes with a full featured version of Compiz Fusion, 
| but the main problem is that there is no way to configure these effects. To  
| configure the different options we will use a tool called Compiz Config. To 
| install it open up synaptic manager and search for Compiz Config...

Compiz and Compiz Config come with Mandriva 'out of the box'.

Compiz is the Most Important Thing to Ever Happen to Linux.

| If the Linux community wants to wipe Windows and Mac out of the OS business
| all they need to do in focus all of their collective efforts on developing
| Compiz. With the combine intelligence of hundreds of thousands of nerds we
| could develop the most pimped out windows management system known to mankind.
| The kids don’t want stability, they want an OS w/ rims that spin.

ompiz is Cool – and Why That Matters

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the most vexed questions within the open source world is when, if
| ever, GNU/Linux will take off on the desktop. Strangely, this isn't really
| about capabilities: as someone who has Ubuntu running on both of his main
| systems, I can attest to the fact that GNU/Linux is not just usable, it's a
| downright pleasure to use. In fact, I constantly marvel at how transparent
| open source has become: most of the time I'm simply not aware that I'm using
| it – it just works.      
|
| This raises the interesting question: so what's missing? What more does open
| source need to do in order to capture the attention of the general user? I  
| think the answer can be found on this YouTube video.

| exciting for gamers and everyone wanting to show off the ‘real’ 3D desktop.
