it can have cube effect and fishes swimming etc-dude install extra plugins vagaira...i had tried months ago that time itself it was possible.try ur compiz manager for options.

that is coz the no. of horizontal desktops is set as 2 in compiz settings. set it to 4 and you'll get the cube. if i remember rite, the snow effect is a plugin.

to record things, install istanbul desktop session recorder. i think its there in off. ubuntu repos.

No Horizontal desktop did not solve the proble

^instanbul is buggy(personal experiance)-use "gtk-recordmydesktop"(hope it is in Ubuntu repos)

i backed out of compiz and now am on beryl, so i can't give you the exact settings. but this is what i use, no. of desktops = vertical virtual size =1, horizontal virtual size =4. i had this same problem when i'd installed CF and i remember setting the horizontal desktops to 4 and getting back the cube.

istanbul has been working fine for me since quite sometime now.

seeing this thread title i though its about ComputerForums

 

[infra_red_dude]

transparency of which panel? gnome panel? its largely dependent on the gtk theme, not cf. and yeah you need to install the .tgz file thru the add button. works fine for me

[infra_red_dude]

yeah right click on the button on the taskbar to configure. when done left single click on it to start recording and then again on it to stop recording. after that it'll ask the location where u wanna save the recording.
