    Any of you Linux guys used this system?
    It looks to be a lot of eye candy but seems pretty cool, just wondered if anyone here has tried it and got any stories, is it unstable? annoying? etc....

    I have it. It works great on my ATI card. I have it so I can select it as a session and not by default. You can do alot of things with it.

    If you have Ubuntu Dapper and an ATI card

    It also works with Nvidia but you will need to find the tutorial on it.

    Cheers for the link Tocool, I'm using Mepis at the moment which is Dapper based but KDE, I think I'm gonna have a play with it!

    I was going to reinstall soon anyway so if I break something it's not too bad lol, I might also learn something if I have to fix it :)
