If you’ve seen the future of UIs with Vista, Mac and Linux (search this site for ‘cube’) you know that Compiz with the flying cubes wins hands down – looks very very cool.
One thing you need to know is that Compiz has forked into two projects:
1) Compiz (vanilla by Novell)
2) Beryl (formerly Compiz-QuinnStorm, the branch which the users have split off due to users building more and more of their own plugins).
Debian Unstable allows you to install compiz-vanilla.
They are still working on a Beryl package.
Ubuntu allready has a Beryl package. The installation wiki is here.

Following Windows Aero, the Mac manager and the Compiz flying cubes, Sun has put out it’s own 3D Java desktop system for free, which means it’ll run on pretty much anything.
