Has anyone else experienced a loss of window decorations when using the experimental plugins and Emerald? Oddly I lose all open roxterm windows, but not other programs. Reloading the window manager brings them back but this happens often enough that it became unusable. Any suggestions?
In sounds plugin, navigate to usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo, and add what you like, or see
http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=25 for more great system sounds ! here are some I have done ! enjoy !

This is what you would get in the D/L ! . . . .
sudo apt-get install git
cd ~/Downloads
sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-bcop compiz-dev \build-essential libtool \libglu1-mesa-dev libxss-dev \libcairo2-dev git-core
git clone git://anongit.compiz.org/users/soreau/scripts
cd scripts
./compiz-addons install all
nohup compiz --replace
NOTE : One command at a time ! ;)
Copy and past to your text editor and save as you wish,!
You may have to reboot !! =) Hope this helps !
Running 10.04 LTS 32 bit with Compiz 0.8.4. First tried the manual method using the instructions in the post. Did nothing but create a scripts folder in my download folder. Then I downloaded the scripts and how-to from the Gnome-look page and tried it that way. Same result. NOTHING. This is what I get in terminal:
"robert@robert-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-bcop compiz-dev \build-essential libtool \libglu1-mesa-dev libxss-dev \libcairo2-dev git-core

Anyone have any ideas? Am I just not seeing something really obvious? I'm still fairly new to Ubuntu and Linux in general. Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance.
the answer is quite simple insted of using the command ./compiz-addons install all try ./compiz-addons-0.8 install all ;) it took me a while to figure this out .. xD
Errors should be resolved ! the repository was down for a bit, ignore error messages while these plugins are being installed, they are do to the missing Hicolor Icons that are not in the repo at this time !

D'oh! I doubleclicked and ran in terminal, as instructions stated, and things appear to be working. Sorry for the noise. Noob

try [CTRL]+[ALT]+[F1], then type "sudo service gdm stop" and "sudo service gdm start". Worked for me :)
Thanks, I will try that
I ended up doing a fresh install and installed the updated plugins and the issue did not arise again.
