On April 24, i removed Ubuntu 7.10 and erase partition, and I installed Jaunty. I didn't install Compiz yet and i didn't made the tests yet. With this PC, i didn't like Compiz in the past, I keep regular mode no extra effect.
In the future, when I will get a new PC with more memory and Video Card more performant i will activate Compiz. You're the second one today to answer me for a question i posted in the past more than one year.
