Ubuntu 6.10 with XGL & Kiba-Dock

After some modifications, here’s a video of my Ubuntu 6.10 desktop with Beryl XGL and Kiba-Dock.
The music is the Main Theme from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

  • Sheldon Coopers favourite, it has to be great!:)

  • 2007? It is 2010. Get with the times Stumbleupon. WTH

  • @NamesED if you can run vista you can run everything even 7 has lower min specs

  • @mikebob
    problem: ubuntu"s battery life sucks
    reason: your battery sucks
    solution: ubuntu netbook remix

  • @penelopoop yes you can play warcraft on it and its not as hard to do as kkkdwww made it seem
    you have basically 2 options free or buy, hard or easy respectively
    free and hard is a program called wine (not to hard just run the exe to install warcraft and then play with wineconfig settings till it works)
    buy and easy is crossover games it is $25 and just run and install
    the only downside to these is any windows programs you install will require higher system specs than recommended on the box

  • @kkkdwww he didn't even argue about anything he asked a perfectly legitimate question
    he only asked if it could do anything other than these "snazzy" effects since that was all the video was showing

  • @HoraceShane195

    ohmygod really? im so there.

    NOT asshole.

  • all those effects cube Dockets widget can run on Win without problem
    Last Win 7 is "perfect " and run all

  • You can run a search on Ubuntu forums (there are pre-packaged debs as well as guides on how to compile from source if you prefer it that way). Note that the physics engine (akamaru) has long since been discontinued (and you'd have to run older builds of Kiba-dock to use it) and Kiba-Dock development as a whole has been halted for quite a while now. Currently Cairo-Dock is probably the most functional for Linux

  • very nice and love the epic music lol where can i find the kibra dock download it looks like the most nifty dock ubuntu has

  • Ucant do that in windows and mac
    lol
    i am a win fan

  • Well the performance of "eye candy" alongside other applications given the system specifications can be used as a measure of overall system performance. Also, it's rather hard to display stability in a video XD.

  • Read the description. It's the Metal Gear Solid 3 Main Theme.

  • He used Beryl (Now Compiz-Fusion) and Kiba-Dock. Probably used gtk-recordMyDesktop to record the video.

  • hi, can u plizzz tell me these programs u have there to make it looks so nice lik e dat..zz i have ubunto ultimate nd all dat but idk watz dat gxl nd how u make it look like dat. thanks

  • "Linux was originally created in response to the criticism of "big brother M$' and to give an alternative option to windows; something M$ tried to stop."
    What??? Linux was created as a hobby project by Linus as sort of a minix clone. It had nothing to do with MS, who wasnt even "big brother" at that point (i think 1990). Id also be interested to see evidence that MS "tried to stop" it from being created–I think MS pretty much pretended they didnt exist till the late 90s.

  • Im not going to troll, but i find it funny how my opinion (that is completely valid) was given bad reps and ultimately removed, just because it was criticizing the current state of Linux.

    Linux was originally created in response to the criticism of "big brother M$' and to give an alternative option to windows; something M$ tried to stop.

    Now linux is being criticized and its stopped.
    Is this the future of Ubuntu? linux?
