    Arrow Enabling Desktop effects for Intel 82845G Brookdale?

    Hello. I am new to Ubuntu (Got swept in by all the Karmic talk!), and have recently installed Karmic Koala.

    The only problem I'm having so far is that I can not enable Desktop Visual Effects. i was wondering if there was a way to enable them..

    Onboard graphics card is: Intel 82845G Brookdale-G/GE (rev01).
    OS: Karmic Koala (Ubuntu).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Your chipset is probably blacklisted. Try unblacklisting it first.

    No a remedy was never found for this issue. Honestly, I don't think it will ever be fixed.

    It is blacklisted. If you disable the blacklist and then try using desktop effects it'll do nothing but freeze.
