I only wish you could browse windows with the mouse instead of "super tab shift"

[puttabutta]

I'll try to mention it to the developer. Shouldn't be hard to implement.

[Daverix]

what compiz fusion version must I have? Everything git?

[puttabutta]

yes, it needs to be git because this plugin is only 2 days old!

Awsome, thanks for an excellent fusioncast! :D

What happened to this plugin? I can't find it on ubuntu repos

[tinymat]

how the F* do i install this? i've tried, but keep getting missing file errors!

[imMors]

can this plugin preview the minimized windows? not with icon, you know

[pkvince]

xvidcap probabbly as they name it at the end

[Adavur]

You're right. Very alike ;)

[ubuntututorials]

It's installed by default. In a terminal, type 'sudo apt-get install ccsm' to install the configuration manager.

[aliancemd]

Open from the top menu: System->Administration->Synapt­ic Package Manager, then control if in the List is selected ALL, then write in the Quick Search: "compiz", and Mark to Install with right click the: "compizconfig-settings-manager­" then press Apply button... After the installation Open, System->Preferences->CompizCon­fig Settings Manager, and then u'll select what u want.

i already have all that stuff with the visual effects enabled......

just don't have the stackswitch plugin. (don't really want it anymore) so thx anyway.

You already have it installed, you just don't have the settings manager:

First, you need to make sure that you have your hardware drivers enabled (search "ubuntu hardware drivers" for more info). Then, go to Synaptic Package Manager and get:

compizconfig-settings-manager

emerald

Adjust things by going System->Preferences->CompizCon­fig Settings Manager. Emerald isn't necessary i guess, but it is what you'd use to make your themes awesome.
