[SOLVED] Compiz Help & Questions

[Weapon_]

I installed Compiz on my desktop and it's not doing anything!
I went into the settings and checked what I wanted it to do and closed it
and it does nothing. I run Xubuntu 10.04
Am I doing something wrong or is it my computer?
With 256Mbs ram 80 GB hard drive and Intel Graphics Card
Running all on a Dell Dimension 2300!
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi nujinini and thank you for taking the time to read this thread.
Anyhow, when I right click on my desktop I don't see Change Desktop Background.
All I get will be in the screenshot below

Install fusion-icon

sudo apt-get install fusion-icon

Go to Applications -> System Tools -> Compiz Fusion Icon

This will appear in your system tray. Click on that to switch to compiz.
