If you're referring to the Compiz window manager which provides OpenGL 'window dressing" enhancements to the Linux GUI desktop, you should be able to just uninstall it and use some other window manager such as Metacity or Sawfish, etc.

How do you install Compiz on Ubuntu 8.10?

The CompizConfig Settings Manager, sometimes referred to as CCSM by fans of abbreviations, is a Compiz configuration utility created by the Compiz Fusion project. Why this configuration utility isn't installed by default with Compiz on Ubuntu systems is a mystery to me, because it provides an excellent interface that simplifies activating, configuring, and deactivating both Compiz and Compiz Fusion plug-ins. CompizConfig was designed solely for the purpose of configuring Compiz plug-ins. It is able to make use of some information about the internals of Compiz plug-ins and the capabilities that they provide and can therefore identify both dependencies and potential conflicts between plug-ins.

Is Compiz compatible with windows XP?

Simple answer: NO. Compiz is only available on LINUX. The closest thing that you will get to it in XP is "Yodm 3d". Yodm 3d is a small free program that gives ur desktop the 3d cube effect. But I believe Yodm 3d changed its name to Deskspace now and is no longer free, but you might still be able to find the older free version. Just do a search on the net. But as far as compiz goes, I doubt they will ever make a version of it for XP - since it is one of the better marketting points for LINUX.
