My graphics card: nVidia 6600LE

Tell me how I did it.

1. Now search for "XGL" and "Compiz" in Sony and install the relevant software.

2. Install ndivid glx driver:

sudo apt-get install nvidia-kernel-common nvidia-glx

sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Find Driver "NV" and modify it to Driver "nvidia".

3. Check if all software is ready:

sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl compiz compiz-gnome libgl1-mesa xserver-xorg libglitz-glx1

If not, the system will automatically install it.

4. Replace Xorg service with Xgl:

sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/Xgl /etc/X11/X

5. Build Compiz self-starter:

sudo gedit ~/.gnomerc

Open the file should be blank, add the following words, and then save

compiz --replace gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale

move resize place switcher

nohup gnome-window-decorator &

6. Restart is OK, you can also install a gset-compiz to configure Compiz

sudo apt-get install gset-compiz
