All of this can be so easily achieved through the 'Ubuntu Software Centre'. Why direct newbies to the command line? I would suggest(with working internet connection): Go to Applications>Ubuntu Software Centre Install 'Advanced Desktop Effects Settings' & 'NVidia binary X.Org driver ('version 185' driver)' Restart. Go to System>Preferences>Appearance On the Visual Effects tab, select 'Normal' or 'Extra' That's it. msverman:

I did exactly what is given in the above message and placed all the files in proper directories. Then I tried to open a .docx file using file type as .docx but OO told me that "Read Error Data could not be read from the file". I have tried to read this file on with a Word7 and there is nothing wrong with the file. What happened and how can I fix it? Thanks for your help. Hi,
