    looking glass

    Hi
    just stumbled over:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjQ4Nza34ak

    and would want to use that on 14.04. Possible? If not maybe compiz could be configured alike?
    Thanks

    Re: looking glass

    Thread moved to Ubuntu +1.

    At the moment it might work, but tomorrow it might not. Pre-releases can be like that. Best way is to try it out and see what happens.

    Re: looking glass

    Is Looking Glass project still on?
    This video was way back and it used Looking Glass, Sun's project, on Ubuntu Dapper Dan ! Like 5 years back !

    I don't think it has anything to do with 14.04. Why did Bucky Ball move the thread to U+1 ?

    Compiz cannot do this, if I am not mistaken, currently using it though.

    Unless I'm mistaken this thread concerns using 14.04 LTS. Best place to ask for support (and at the moment the only place for 14.04 LTS support) is here.

    Really sorry Bucky Ball, seems I misunderstood it.

    I thought MikeCyber wanted to use it in 14.04 (if and when he upgrades), but I guess what he meant is he wants to use it in his current 14.04 install.

    My bad.

    But really, is Looking Glass out there and can be installed in any current set-up. The looks are quiet amazing.

    Ah Ringi, just beat me to it, or, made my question null and void

    Thanks for the link. Am gonna try, if I have some time.

    EDIT: @Ringi :Sorry to report, but that link does not work .
    EDIT2: And it does, seems you have given 'http://' twice over in the link.

    All good. Even if that isn't the case, all testers and others can benefit from it here and if it doesn't work in 14.04 LTS figure out how to make it so!

    PS: And yes, looks great. I'll give it a go on a 14.04 tomorrow hopefully.

    Burned the livecd but it freezes at USB something.

    Yes old but looks cool. Would be amazing in 14.04 or 12.04. Also the source seems gone, only some descriptions are downloaded from sourceforge.
