Answer:

Here is an all GUI (no command line knowledge needed) tutorial on how to enable the Advanced Visual Effects in Ubuntu. The default just lets you use wobbly windows and desktop wall. You need to follow this tutorial and get CompizConfig Manager installed. Follow this: http://hacktivision.com/index.php?blog=2&title=using-the-cool-3d-features-in-ubuntu-7-1-2&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 If get an error about composite, try installing xserver-xgl (or something like that, search for xgl) by using synaptic and then reboot and it should work.

Seeing as Edbuntu 7.10 is based on Ubuntu 7.10 try using that script : http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/04/compiz-fusion-on-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbin/ Make sure you have the Restricted drivers enabled. To enable go to : System>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager. Hope this works for you.

I've never used edubuntu, but I think it uses gnome so installing compiz fusion should be the same. Basically just open the synaptic package manager, search "compiz" and mark everything with the word "compiz" in it for installation. I think the needed files are: compiz compiz-plugins compiz-core compiz-gnome compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compizconfig-settings-manager emerald so: sudo apt-get install compiz compiz-plugins compiz-core compiz-gnome compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compizconfig-settings-manager emerald should install it. Then to start it press alt+f2 and type: compiz --replace
