Some Help With Ubuntu! - I can't get Beryl installed and Compiz enabled!

jlrr94
Hello!

I've been using Ubuntu Edgy like for a week, and I would like to install Beryl, but I don't know how to do it!

I've installed Samba and other stuff and also add Ubuntu to my Windows Network, I know a lot about Windows but Linux looks a little strange for me.
If anyone knows about Ubuntu 7.10 please help me 'cause I really want to get Beryl, I already made the test of the aceleration or like that and it says yes, I'm able to install Beryl but don't know how to. huh.gif

Also I can't get Compiz enabled, so plz help me!

It may not be for Edgy, but if you install the same packages, assuming you use Nvidia, then things should go fine. I'm not sure about Ubuntu Edgy, but under Preferences or System (i'm not exactly sure, as i use Kubuntu) there should be an option called "Desktop Effects" or similar. Just enable those effects.

    hey trapsters, a few months ago, i reinstalled my laptop because i noticed it was getting

    well (dual boot) until around about a week ago. for some reason, however, my ubuntu 7.10 takes an

    printing system (cupsd) takes about 30secs - 1min to load. then, once typing in my username and

    As some of you may know, I took the dive towards Ubuntu on my main computer at home, an HP Pavilion

    gaming) could be done with Linux, I decided to close my eyes and leap. And what a leap it has been.

    If you bought a brand new computer within the past few years, you might have noticed that your
    computer shipped with a Serial ATA (SATA) controller instead of the convetional Enhanced IDE (EIDE)

    and their supported Hard Disk Drives have a higher data transfer speed against their IDE
    counterparts. And they are supposed to use lesser amount of power thereby saving you more battery

    About three years ago I decided to learn how to use Linux and after a lot of posts on a forum I

    Linux distro to use but with its unmatched forum community support it is one of the easiest to learn
    to use. One of the problems with learning Linux is that a lot of users have an attitude that Linux
    should be a free Windows knock off which it is not. Ubuntu is build on a Linix core or kernel and is
    a different Open Source and free as in to use operating system. This brings us to t....
