Quick guide to desktop effects on Intel graphics:

Postby arinlares on Wed Sep 08, 2010 6:41 am

I installed compiz, which, for some reason, wasn't installed, according to Synaptic, and did the following I found from my search on the Ubuntu forum's archive:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
sudo update-alternatives --remove gl_conf /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf


And then start compiz however you please.

I did this, trying to get it to work, and, behold, it did on my Intel 945 chipset. So if you have this, you're in.
