I am a fairly new Linux user. I have installed Ubuntu 11.10 on my computer. Since i do not know much about the kind of applications that are available on Ubuntu i usually surf the web to find them.

While surfing i came across this application called the compiz fusion which many people have rated as one of the best graphics application for Ubuntu. I have downloaded compiz fusion from ubuntu software center and it is visible in my applications section. I can see "Compiz fusion icon" on my launcher but when i click on it nothing happens? How can i start the animations using compiz fusion?

Thank you in advance.

Open a terminal with CTRL + ALT + T

First, update and upgrade your system wtih:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Next, install compiz and all the other effects: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main

Then, in you dash (press <Super> key), look for CompizConfig Settings Manager

You can find and apply effects from CCSM
