Ctrl+Left Arrow gives a cube rotating.
To be able to do this on your Ubuntu 9.04 machine

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
System - Preferences - CompizConfig Settings Manager
You may need to install fusion-icon from
System->Preferences->Synaptics Package manager
then type ccsm on command prompt
you should get a screen.
Which will ask you preferences for your Desktop background.
You should get such a window
and then go to General in the window select
General options -> Desktop Size and increase the number of desktops to 4.
Or what ever you wish
Ctrl+Alt+Left Arrow should give you effect which you can see on my laptop here
