[SOLVED] CCSM error

[SteveNorman]

I had compiz running fine, then I tried to run a script to get the cube into a cylinder. Now my compiz is hosed. I tried removing , purging, all sorts of stuff but I cant get my ccsm to work, and I cant get the advanced desktop effects menu option back. Here is the output of "ccsm"

desktop:~$ ccsm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 38, in <module>
    import compizconfig
ImportError: libcompizconfig.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf

not sure how i would do that,,,,

-desktop:/usr/local/lib$ sudo cp libcompizconfig* /usr/lib/
[sudo] password for steve: 
cp: cannot stat `libcompizconfig*': No such file or directory

is the result of my attempt to copy the next post there.

I am sure I am missing something obvious here,,

Install Compiz 0.7.6: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...2&postcount=24
This version includes cube deformation (cylinder and sphere) by default.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, something related to ccsm is stopping me from successfully doing any desktop effects.

after an extensive search and destroy mission for every file related even remotely to compiz I finaly was able to reload and run it. the icons in ccsm are greyed out, but the cube spins,,,happy happy!
