First of all , make your direct-rendering enabled, and install these packages including it's dependencies.
1. xserver-xgl
2. compiz
3. compiz-core
4. compiz-plugins
5. compiz-gnome
6. gnome-compiz-manager
A good source for those package is ubuntu.compiz.net .
Note that i've tried several version of no. 1 and only xserver-xgl_7.0.0+cvs20060625_i386.deb works for most of PC's that i've tested with.
For no. 2,3, and 5 I suggest you use version 0.0.13.41-0ubuntu1.
For no 4 use version 0.10-0ubuntu1.
You MUST use the mesa libs version >= 6.5.1 to make the compiz works.
After all of those packages installed (by mirrors repositories or by dpkg, its up to u), backup and edit the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom and add these lines:
[servers]
1=Xgl
[server-Xgl]
name=Xgl server
command=/usr/bin/Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer
flexible=true
Save, then, backup and edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf , find
0=Standard
#1=Standard
switch it to:
#0=Standard
1=Standard
And change
GdmXserverTimeout=10
to
GdmXserverTimeout=50
Save, restart X or reboot.
and run compiz-tray-icon
Try it out. Let me know if it works
