Does anyone here have any insight into whether Unity supports dual

What am I doing wrong?

Sorry that I can't answer your question. But if you are experimenting
because of the recently poorly announced news about changes for Natty, I
would hold off a bit longer. If you find (sorry, i didn't save the
link) the actual Ubuntu design proposal, Ubiquity for desktop will be
very different than the current Netbook version.

One key difference is that Ubiquity plans to ditch Mutter and replace
with Compiz, which many of us are already familiar with and comes with
lots of hardware support and utilities.

Is it Unity or Ubiquity?



Arrgh, I've been making that same mistake all day it seems.


Unity, this is all about Unity :)

And yes, things are shaking up.. It will be interesting to see what
future versions of Fedora decide to use for default desktop when they
get to Gnome 3.....No matter which way this goes, the future landscape
of gnome direction is about to get a serious makeover.

I've just never liked the menu layout of it. Plus I'm attached to the
KDE thing of just moving your mouse towards the next workspace and going
there. I'm hooked on that. :) Ric
