The purpose of this video is to show how good Ubuntu 10.04 looks like without installing any aditional software, this is out of the box experience. Also, I wanted to show you how good (performance wise) compiz has become, no more hicups or slowdowns. Ubuntu Lucid boots in just 9 seconds on my current PC, a record by itself.
The new Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid Lynx can be download HERE
Q9550@4.0Ghz ATI 3870 UBUNTU LINUX 9.04 COMPIZ FUSION 1920X1080:
Interesting, and very suave. I wonder if it would be possible to rotate to another desktop while a full screen game is running (in a seperate screen resoloution).
Compiz is very beautiful indeed.
Here is a video I had made on my 3870 running Ubuntu 9.04.

Wow, thanks! 😛
I am total Linux noob though. I just Google what I want to do and presto, ie driver installation!
People are complaining too much about ATI and Linux. Maybe ATI’s driver is not so advanced as Nvidia’s in Linux, but I found it quite operational. I really don’t want anything more, but as I said, I am a noob! 🙂
Why so excited about playing videos?
This video was made in order to be posted as an answer to a local forum, where people are totally against ATI regarding Linux and they always said that they couldn’t even watch a single HD video with Compiz Running.
Well, I proved them wrong, as I’ve been running like three 720P ones, two flash 720P and one 1080P at the same time!
That’s all! 🙂
Moreover, I come from the era of the PC that we couldn’t even watch a 320X240 video with decent quality and framerate and it’s always fun to see how far things have evolved! 😀
@Reavenk : Yes, it’s possible, I did it with World Of Warcraft 🙂
Fantastic, but sorry, with this wallpaper I couldn’t pay much attention on what you were saying. 🙂
