Compiz isn't working check out these results

[iamjfarrell]

I don't know if you guys are familiar with Compiz-check or not, but here is the results of that. Then the results of "fusion-icon" and "ccsm".

 In case you did not compile Compiz manually, this will result in Compiz
 failing to run.

Fusion-Icon results when I run in Terminal.

CCSM results when I run it in the Terminal

I haven't been able to run Compiz since I upgraded to Jaunty. I got it running for a few minutes once until I restarted. I do not remember what I ended up doing but it still was not 100% at that point. Can anyone please point me in the right direction? Thanks

How did you update Jaunty? I take it you upgraded via the automatic updater?

Quite often that doesn't work too well. I'd recommend reinstalling Compiz using apt-get.

I did up date it through the automatic updater. I tried to reinstall Compiz using apt-get and it said everything was up to date except 9 things needed to be upgraded. So, I did "sudo apt-get upgrade compiz." It asked me to restart my computer. I did and I have the same basic results. Fusion-Icon doesn't start CCSM won't start and when I go through appearance to start compiz the borders just disappear.

Have you tried removing (not upgrading) all the compiz components?

Auto-updates always manage to leave some problems behind....

How would I do that? Just do Sudo apt-get remove?

[iamjfarrell]

When I did "sudo apt-get remove" to remove all the compiz files I could find this is what showed up everytime. Is there an easy way to remove all these unneeded files?

Well I figured out how to remove those bad boys. AUTOREMOVE! I'm reinstalling compiz now. (do you ever get the feeling you are talking to yourself?)

[iamjfarrell]

I have tried to reinstall compiz. When I do sudo apt-get install compiz I get an error. It can not connect to the archive. Help?
