so are you on the internet with your linux rig or not?
Nope, On on my Windows Machine... I can't get the internet to work with the Linux lappy...

You can do it that way, but compiz fusion is already installed. All you need is just the manager to enable the "advanced effects".
Go to the terminal and type
Would I need the internet for that?

And about your question earlier, you do not need a crossover cable, just a normal ethernet cable will work. Plug it into your other computer, then on your windows computer right click the active connection (the connections with internet) and share it. I dont remember what tab it is under exactly, but youll find it it a few. Then restart and you should now have internet on the xubuntu computer from the windows computer.
Ah right, I'll see where I can get one

EDIT: O and a new line simply means press enter in the terminal.
When I press enter it runs the command I just typed...
