I'm running an Nvidia 8600 GT video card under PCLinuxOS and I've installed the Nvidia driver through Synaptic. I've enabled 3D acceleration. After doing these steps I get 16 desktop numbers in my taskbar and when clicking them the desktop spins like a rectangle but when minimizing or restoring windows it still looks (reacts) the same as before. When moving windows they will bend. How do I configure these effects? Under "Configure your computer/3D desktop effects" I see no other options other than to enable "Full 3D effects" and "Use native support and Compiz-Fusion" which I have all checked. Help!!!

You see 4 sides of the cube.
You had 4 desktops b4 before you did this.
This gives you a total of 16.
Reduce desktops to 1 from 4.

Yes. There really is no comparison between the two.
