ubuntu 64-bit + usb harddive + 3D visual effect
can't help that I am so excited...
Originally my amd64 quad comes with vista that i don't want to mess it up (it's messy enough); so i decided to install ubuntu on an external usb hard drive. The idea is simple: I have the BIOS configured to look for any external USB harddrive. If the linux drive is there, load ubuntu; else, load vista from my local hard drive. For this purpose, the motherboard must support booting from USB.
tried google earth. it crashed my x-window. probably b'coz of 64 bit.
Enabled compiz fusion effect
