I can't get Compiz Fusion working. I've got an iNvidia graphics card, and I thought I did everything to get Compiz up and going... it just doesn't work.

I've used it, unfortunately.

Eventually you get over the wobbly windows and realize it's a broken piece of shit.

Yeah, Ubuntu is a broken POS when compared to a good OS, like Fedora.  The OS of men.

Did you double check you enabled the restricted nVidia driver, as well as downloaded, installed, and enabled Compiz Fusion?

I just installed Ubuntu the other day. I ran into a couple issues, but their support forum provided the help I needed. So you may also want to check there.
