Compiz and Compiz Fusion 0.7.6 out in wild
by cyberorg, Sunday, June 1st, 2008 @ 7:57 am

Our friends Dennis Kasprzyk and Guillaume Seguin announced the release of Compiz and Compiz Fusion 0.7.6 respectively. As is the tradition we always make a release with a lot of new features and of course eye-candy to go with it.

In the new features there is now a new “Static Switcher” that shows thumbnails of all the open windows and moves caret instead of thumbnails. Place plugin received a rewrite that enhances it’s multi-display support. Gtk-window-decorator is now accesessibilit(a11y) sensitive and ezoom plugin now has area zoom, helping people with disabilities to work on computer with ease.

Eye-candy? Full sphere!! I’ll let a picture talk for itself.

openSUSE users head to X11:XGL repository and use 1-click install for your distro version. Notice new openSUSE_11.0 repository :)

    Ubuntu users can simply add the “deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/compiz/ubuntu hardy main” repository, and then you’ll get compiz 0.7.6 with the cylinder & shphere via updates.

    [...] Eine neue Version des Linux 3D Desktop Projekts Compiz Fusion ist erschienen. Mit Compiz Fusion wird der Linux Desktop zur dreidimensionalen Spielwiese über dessen Nutzen sicherlich oft gestritten wird.
