i have a dell 1150 and cant even boot the live cd it hangs up with the curser and a black screen lol if u guys r good with ubuntu just google my name ( bobthecatkiller ) should come p with yahoo answers n stuff thanks and nice vid 5 stars
Can the same be said for getting effects to work in the first place WITHOUT compiz activated? I can't even get the basic effects to work on my Parallels setup on my MacBook, my guess is the graphics card, which is an embedded Intel GMA chip, can't handle it.
You need a support graphics card for the Desktop Effects. Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 comes with Compiz but you need to install the manager or you'll only get basic choices (no cube, only the "wall"). It's the manager that lets you choose the various settings and effects separately.
Im sorry but I would like to correct your mistake of £399 being about $200. It actually is about $800. =]

two questions,
1) Does the water effect work with the ATI 1150 (I have the same card in my inspiron 1501 and I haven't got the chance to test ubuntu on it).
2)Where did you get that icon dock?Whats the name of it?

Choose to boot in safe graphics mode on the CD, or, just wait 19 days for the new release, which works better.

Actually, I've noticed that if you turn Wi-fi off, gtkrecordmydesktop works quite well.

Yeah, probably because integrated chips don't handle screen recording very well with Compiz-Fusion on.
/me knows from experience
