So, just to get things strait compiz fusion is merge between beryl and compiz? This means double features more stability etc?

Does ubuntu gutsy come with compiz fusion already in the synaptic manager?

Compiz Fusion is pretty much the end result of the Compiz/Beryl merge. Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) does come with a basic Compiz install, with additional plugins and a GUI configuration system just a few clicks in Synaptic away. If you're using an ATi X-series Radeon or Radeon HD, you'll have to use fglrx, which just now supports AIGLX, but it's not perfect. You may choose to use Xgl, which runs smoother at the compromise of some CPU power. You can turn on Compiz by right clicking on the Desktop, going to Change Desktop Background, clicking the Effects tab, and turning on the effects.

Yeah i got compiz working perfectly, but as soon as i hit "skydome" check, then my compiz shuts offs, like no more 3d anything, why is this? i unchecked the skydome but i couldn't get any effects going.
