To see what display driver is currently being used, type the following in a terminal session:

Code:

lspci | grep VGA

Hello and welcome to LinuxQuestions,

AFAIK the effects are not enabled by default in Linux Mint, although Compiz is installed. Open a terminal and type:

Code:

compiz --replace

and see what that tells you.

Kind regards,

Eric
