    Wow great video man you saved me a lot of time :) because I thought I was going to have to do all this stuff through terminal. Thanks and I rate 5 stars. One question though: I am running Ubuntu 9.04 and Google gadgets works and all but the side bar and gadgets are outlined in gray I was wondering if you knew how to make it see through instead of the ugly gray outline. Thanx :)

    How to enable this “fusion” option with the windows when you drug them? I don’t have it after Ubuntu 9.10 is installed. Does it depend on the graphic card?
