Ubuntu is the one that did the switch to unity. Mint usually has spins of xfce, kde, mate, and cinnamon. Installing from source is fun, but it's better just to use the package from the repo of your distro. Since if you installed it manually you'd probably have to maintain/update it manually. Installing from source is fun, make sure you read the README file or HELP. In debian/ubuntu/mint I think you need to install: build essentials
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
and having the <a data-ipb="nomediaparse" href="http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-install-kernel-headers-package/">linux-headers</a> install when building is usually necessary too.
First time ever hearing the name of that distro. Is it deb based or rpm based?
