Hi,
I'm running Ubuntu Intrepid Alpha 3 with a nVidia Corporation GeForce
7150M (rev a2) graphic card.
When I use the appearance preferences dialog to enable visual effects
(i.e. "Normal" or "Extra") I am warned that "Desktop effects could not
be enabled".
The following includes all the information I've been able to gleen thus
far. Hope it helps in a diagnosis.
