So, I'm trying out Ubuntu 12.04 in a VmWare virtual machine. 3D rendering is working, Dash works, Hud works.

In Gnome3 I move my mouse to the upper left corner and can show all open windows. In Unity you are supposed to be able to user Super-W, but it doesn't work. Holding down the Super key to get a list of keyboard shortcuts also doesn't work.

I really like being able to see all my open windows in the current workspace. Can I do this with Unity or do I have to install Compiz?

Never mind; had to turn on "Accelerate 3D" in the VmWare settings. Even thought direct rendering was working and even glxgears was working, effects were not.
