Hey Everyone,
I'm extremely new to linux and just downloaded ubuntu to my laptop. I am a computer science major and i felt like everyone with my major should at least test out linux. I have seen a lot of videos and would really like to customize my desktop. I really like linux but i am having so many problems. I have downloaded emerald and compiz, but neither work. I have read forum after forum and have come to the conclusion that it has something to do with my graphics card. To give you a little more information about my system, I have a ASUS G50V laptop with a NVIDIA graphics card. I think these problems with compiz and emerald have something to do with my graphics card. If anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciate.
