Sorry for the tangent but I could not find more information about this online: is the Unity UI fundamentally tied to 3D acceleration support and compositing? IMHO if it was technically possible it would be more uniform to have the 2D experience built on the same new UI/UX concepts just a bit less visually intense, much like the 'desktop effects' setting used to provide more or less the same UI with various degrees of glitz. thanks Jani -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
