Since my Ubuntu Tips post, Compiz has really come a long way. If you’re reading this because you checked out my ubuntu tips tutorial, you’re going to want to go here: http://wiki.compiz.net/index.php/Ubuntu#Installation for the most up-to-date methods of getting compiz on your box. I especially like the new compiz-manager program that will load compiz, load your theme engine, and if it craps out, automagically revert to your default window manager.
If you need help with getting compiz working, you can usually find me trolling around #ubuntu-xgl on irc.freenode.net.
