Graphics effects not available in 11.04 like in 10.10?

I used to like the graphic effects in Maverick. but I cannot find a way to apply graphic effects in Natty unlike Maverick. Were the effects dropped?

You are probably referring to the lack of a Desktop Effects tab in gnome-appearance-properties.

You still can configure desktop effects using compizconfig-settings-manager in the same way, the only difference will be the fact that enabling Desktop Cube would require some extra steps.

What are some of the issues with CCSM and why would I want to avoid it?

Another tip: In case something goes wrong with the Compiz settings, you can reset them by running this command:

unity --replace

dunno why, but something's wrong with that compizconfig-settings-manager link. It shows up perfectly in the answer preview, but here it comes up horribly. – Bilal Akhtar May 06 '11 at 10:21

Use in Terminal

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
ccsm

Now configure the settings
