Description This is my first favorite Ubuntu Desktop. I use Metacity composite with the new GNOME Desktop from Ubuntu Hardy. It looks great and have better performance than with Compiz Fusion. The cairo-dock i use is very smooth and fast. Before i have tried awn (Awant Window Navigator) and Kiba-Dock. Both are still buggy and not so smooth.

Hi! Nice setup.
What programlauncher do you use? What I mean is the "Internet" icon, which covers all the programm shortcuts?
Is this just a folder?

I realy like the Stack plugin, but this can not deal with dropped program icons.

Thank you
BrEin

That, my friend is one sexy desktop.

How did you do all that stuff? Mind if I keep in touch as I want to get an Ubuntu Desktop looking like that in the near future. I'm using compiz right now and have never tried metacity.

Thanks for your comment ~calvera! I like almost minimal, but not always

The secret for minimal desktop style is using linux desktop i think. For 2 years i am a windows user and have always trouble with a perfect minimal and clean desktop.

So with Gnome and Ubuntu i have found my love

There are some good howtos at ubuntuusers.de for germans or ubuntuforums.org

The good place the start is the wiki pages.
