Not sure if anyone knows the answer to this.

Does anyone know how to get the aquarium in Ubuntu? Such as this:
www.youtube.com

:nerd:
Would be much appreciated, as I have been all over the net, and am stuck.

:confused: Thanks.

697538 2008-08-15 22:48:00 Unsure, but to me it looks like Compiz Fusion
There a topic on it here (ubuntuforums.org)

Raydan42, after you've installed compiz, run 'ccsm' (the compiz control panel) and enable the aquarium there. If you're running the latest version of ubuntu, it should already be installed.

Is it in a setting? I can't find it in any of the relevant settings.

Ok I'v been asked a million times how to do this so here it is sticky:
1. install linux
2. install compiz
3. enable 3d cube, wobbly windows..ect
4. set cube opacity slider BOTH to 25.
5. use a skydome and check off "animate"
heres a link to some i have made, on my server, www.PearFilms.com/Skydomes.tar.gz
6. Install atlantis "fish" plugin
you can get it here:
gitweb.compiz-fusion.org (gitweb.compiz-fusion.org ea582a6f730e;sf=tgz)
(extract to your home dir, go into that directory inside a terminal, type "make" then "sudo make install"


.... that would be enough for me :banana

It should be in ccsm, but you'll need to install the plugin first.
