I've never used Linux before and I can't even get it running heh. Basically I am using Ubuntu 12.10 in virtual box, at that least that's what I think I'm doing. Currently I am just watching this background picture though and I can move the pointer around but there's no menu bar or anything. I tried some hotkeys as well but nothing pops up and the only thing I've seen so far is Compiz crashing.
So my question is basically, how do I even get it running? I'd take a screenshot but there's nothing to show.
Specs:
Intel Core i5 2500K which should be like 3.3GHz I believe.
8192MB memory.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti
Virtual Box specs:
Processor: 1 CPU at 100%
Memory: 512MB (The one listed under System > Motherboard)
Display > Video: 12MB memory
I hope I did that right now :)
