Trying to Install Extra Compiz Fusion Plugins
I've tried a few times to compile some compiz fusion plugins, but when I do, I get an output telling me that there's no target for my "make" command, but theres a "Makefile" file in the folder that I cd'd to. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Can you post the output? As for temporary guess I think you don't have any /usr/src/linux. If you have such directory maybe you don't have .config file under it.

It's in this folder /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-24-generic, I'm not sure if that's the right one though, I don't know anything about that. I ran it again to get the output, and it worked, but with a bunch of errors, I'm trying to compile the atlantis plugin, I had it before, but my file system went bad, I had a big error that the system couldn't fix itself, and I have no idea how, so I had to reinstall everything. Now, I think I'm just missing a library or something, but I can't tell, the output would be a few pages long. Have any thoughts?

did you read the "Makefile"
sometimes you will need to do this ( one of them ) Code:
make |
There's neither an "INSTALL" or "README" in the src files, there's only a "MAKEFILE.am"
|
if it is from cvs or svn then a " configure" file must be made
this should do it Code:
autoreconf -v -i |
so I just cd to the src directory and use those commands? And I've been trying to do a few plugins, none of them have worked. I even tried the "Elements" Script from http://www.elementsplugin.com/downlo...-recent.tar.gz I think I might be missing a dependency, some library or something, because I get a bunch of errors when I try to "make && make install".

Question why did you not use the install script http://www.elementsplugin.com/downloads/ the install script uses apt-get and will auto download the missing stuff and that plugin ( the elements-most-recent.tar.gz) contains this Code:
