Step 1: Add a new source
Sudo VI/etc/APT/sources. List
Add at the end of the file:
Http://ubuntu.compiz.net/edgy main-edgy
You can also add one of the following sources:
Deb http://www.beerorkid.com/compiz edgy main-edgydeb
Http://media.blutkind.org/xgl/ edgy main-edgydeb
Http://compiz-mirror.lupine.me.uk/edgy main-edgy uses the first source because it is the fastest source for me.
All my sources on CERNET are as follows:

Step 2: Obtain the source authentication key to ensure that the source is correct
Wget http://ubuntu.compiz.net/quinn.key.asc-o-| sudo apt-key add-
If you use other sources, you can also use one of the following commands:
Wget http://www.beerorkid.com/compiz/quinn.key.asc-o-| sudo apt-key add-
Wget http://media.blutkind.org/xgl/quinn.key.asc-o-| sudo apt-key add-
Wget http://compiz-mirror.lupine.me.uk/quinn.key.asc-o-| sudo apt-key add-
Step 3: update the software package and make sure it is the latest sudo apt-Get Update & sudo apt-Get dist-Upgrade
Step 4: Make sure that the ATI driver is installed and the RX driver is not installed. Because edgy uses Xorg 7.1, it does not support RX well!
In the "device" section, sudo VI/etc/X11/Xorg. conf
Change driver "ATI":
Driver "radeon"
Add the following options at the same time:
Option "dri" "true"
Option "colortiling" "on"
Option "enablepageflip" "true"
Option "accelmethod" "exa"
Option "xaanooffscreenpixmaps"
Option "renderaccel" "true"
Note:
You can also use "accelmethod" "xAA" to replace "accelmethod" "exa". xAA is faster, but exa must be more stable.
Step 4: Install Beryl (Beryl is a project independent from the compiz branch quinnstorm)
Sudo apt-Get install Beryl-core Beryl-plugins-data emerald Beryl-settings Beryl-manager Beryl-dev emerald-themes
Restart After installation
Step 5: Enable Beryl to open the terminal. Enter beryl. If you want to get the same theme as edgy, enter the following in the terminal:
Beryl-Manager
Then select the emerald theme manager, select humanty ubuntulook theme, and select the window manager as Beryl!
You can also use the menu editor to add a menu item to the menu for future convenience.
Next, you can enjoy the cool effect aiglx brings to you. It is faster and more dazzling than xgl!
