What is this output? How are you trying to install compiz? I thought it was installed by default on Ubuntu.

When i installed the new version Compiz is not installed by default and i looked for it first. Then i searched the forums and this lead me to this link--> http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/2007/8/29/How-to-set-up-Compiz-Fusion so far it is installed but the desktop is still not enabled.
