Ubuntu7.10 + ATI-7.11 graphics card driver + Source Code installation compiz-fusion-0.6.0 + cool + Avant Window Navigator + Studio theme (Without XGL)
If you see this question, it may seem impossible. No problem. The following describes my specific operation process. After four installation experiences, my steps are clear, during the third installation, I went smoothly without any error message. If you follow all of my procedures, there is certainly no problem. However, the configuration process of these special effects themes is quite complicated. If you have no patience, forget it. Also, see the following video card support range. If the performance is lower than 9800, I suggest you do not install it. The effect will certainly be achieved, but it is very resource-consuming. for a reference, my X800GTO (256 MB/256bit) is not very smooth. Measure it by yourself. I personally think that the X1600 or above should be smooth.
I. First install the graphics card driver
1. Check whether your video card is in the following range

If the desktop graphics card is less than 9500, you don't have to watch it. Install the old driver.
2. Pure installation system. We recommend that you install the driver in English. After the driver is installed, install the Chinese support package and change it to Chinese. Because updates in the Chinese system may fail, and the driver cannot be installed even if an error occurs.
Use glxgears to test the Default Driver performance. I have over 4400 FPS.
3. Set the software source. Note: I edited the article after packaging the Chinese language. The driver installation must be completed in the English environment. The following settings must be understood in English.
Open the software source settings and check all the software sources in "Ubuntu software" and "third-party software. In "Update", all except "unsupported updates" are checked. "Close"-"re-load", wait for the system to complete automatically.
4. Update the system.
Sudo apt-get upgrade-y
In this case, do not install a Chinese package.
5. Install the package required for compilation.
Sudo apt-get install module-assistant build-essential fakeroot dh-make debhelper debconf libstdc ++ 5 linux-headers-generic
6. Download driver, address: http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html
Generally, it is stored in the main directory, saving you the need to define the path.
7. Generate the. deb package.
Sudo bash ati-driver-installer-7-11-x86.x86_64.run -- buildpkg Ubuntu/gutsy
Wait patiently, four. deb packages will be generated, namely xorg-driver-fglrx-dev_8.433-1_i386.deb, xorg-driver-fglrx_8.433-1_i386.deb, fglrx-amdcccle_8.433-1_i386.deb, and fglrx-kernel-source_8.433-1_i386.deb. The total size is 13.9 MB.
