My newest addition to my linux (ubuntu) environment is Compiz. Compiz, together with the compiz fusion plugins is a very need look to your desktop, with all kind of tricks. Just check out the movie below.

To install it you can follow this howto @ help.ubuntu.com, or follow this few steps below:

Use your terminal and copy-paste the following:

sudo echo "" >> /etc/apt/sources.lst
sudo echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu feisty main" >> /etc/apt/sources.lst
sudo echo "deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu feisty main" >> /etc/apt/sources.ls

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager

compiz --replace

According to the howto at help.ubuntu.com you can start it by enabling desktop effects. Unfortunatly this didn't work for me. So I create a startup program that runs the previous command. This works for me :)
