If you add it, count me in. I'm running Linux Mint Cassandra (equivalent of Ubuntu 7.04) with the black desktop theme from Ubuntu Studio and compiz-fusion. In some ways, Mint is even easier to use than Ubuntu...it mounts NTFS partitions in read/write mode by default, it is updated more frequently than Ubuntu, and it has a nice list of default programs, some of which were written specifically for Mint.

Xubuntu 7.04

Upcoming Releases are:

October 2007 - Gutsy Gibbon (7.10)
April 2008 - Hardy Heron (8.04 LTS)

EDIT:

Think you might want to include that Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu are all official releases by Canonical?

I dont know...


Peace!!

what error does it give?

Edit: if you want to add guides, may I suggest this one on compiz-fusion / emerald? It's fantastic, and i know you guys didn't drop 300+ on video cards to use metcity.
