Ubuntu (to be exact, Ubuntu Celestial Customized version of the best Unicorn) is my first contact with a Linux distribution, it is more funny, that time I also sit in the Internet cafes play StarCraft 2. At the beginning of the play, especially like the unicorn that window animation and in the switch when those special effects and 3D desktop and like the Docky on the Apple machine, cut to change the Sao bag is very.   Of course, I still like docky now. To enable the 3D desktop, the process is simple. Note: The KDE desktop environment is available for both 3D Desktop and window-distorted animation effects. The Unity desktop environment also requires manual configuration.  To better toss these, it is necessary to switch to the closed source graphics driver (the closed source driver can be found in the software source section of the setup). First use the Package Manager apt (this is a command-line-based tool), a graphical call to Software center, and a aptitude is an apt-based pseudo-graphical interface using the Ncurser library, also used at the terminal. However, regardless of whether you use the command line or the graphics Package Manager, you must install the CCSM software suite and its plug-in package to properly set up the 3D desktop.
Compiz (installed by default),CCSM Settings Manager (Compizconfig-settings-manager), plug-in package compiz-plugins ...Unity-tweak (Ubuntu tweak tool) Choose the animation when the window toggles, Ubuntu theme$ sudo apt-get-y install unity-tweak compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins-extra compiz-pluginsOpen CCSM and configure. if smooth, you can try to press ctrl+alt at the same time, and hold down the left mouse button drag, or you can press Ctrl+alt, and then press the ← button on the keyboard or → Key of course, the opening process will not be smooth, if you restart the system after the start of the graphical interface failed, you can try to log in the Virtual Console and delete the CCSM configuration file (config/compiz*. gconf/apps/compiz*), reset thesystem, etc. to complete the reset operation Unity Reset directive: sudo unity--resettry pressing CTRL+ALT+F7 to see if you can get into the graphical interface.Some of the content is reproduced from the following blog, thanks to bloggers selfless sharing. http://www.cnblogs.com/csulennon/p/4452302.html If you want to open more 3D effects, please visit the following posts.
