Installing newest Compiz Fusion from the developer GIT can be a very boring, slow and difficult way for the Linux noobies, or even, PC noobies. Just I found the newest release of Compiz Fusion (0.7.6) in they launchpad.net repositories, this could help many people to have such nice effects like cube reflection and deformation, 3d windows, and other such nice effects, test them, because I am on that
