tried this with compiz 0.8.8 and ubuntu 12.04, but if i log into that new session, compiz is not started correctly. only if i enter "compiz --replace ccp" explicit in a terminal i get compiz working correctly. i compiled compiz myself because of issues with the version of the repositories. gotbletu hope you can help me with that? greetings - wursti.

I've been watching your videos for a while and I just have to ask, is that terminal an applet or plugin, or is it just a normal terminal you've scripted to act like that?

Lol, the pop sound in the beginning of this video freaked me out. Great video. Will you be doing a tutorial on how to be using Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 11.10?

gotbletu commented on 03 Jan 2012

@MrOne2watch i never used any books, just learn as u go, like if u see a command u dont understand bust out a man page or search online for an example

gotbletu commented on 23 Oct 2011

@EDUARDOGOKU1996 right click on the panel and select remove panel (gnome 2), in gnome3 u have to use Alt+rightclick (with compiz off also)

gotbletu commented on 09 Feb 2012

@thejoesteiger might be ur theme or maybe u forgot to turn some compiz plugin on, i think theres one call titlebar or someshit i forgot

gotbletu commented on 22 Oct 2011

@MicroHelper didnt hear any pop sound, guess halloween came early on ur end =) yea always do videos when i get bored

@gotbletu Doing compiz --replace removed the titlebars. metacity --replace brings them back but get rid of compiz.
