Emerald Won't Change Theme


I have Ubuntu 11.04 installed on my laptop. I've installed Compiz and Emerald, and I am trying use Emerald to change the themes. I open Emerald, import a theme, and select it. Nothing happens. I've searched on Google, and people have said to type "emerald --replace". This is what I get when I try it:

Code:
colin@TheDarkSideOfTheMoon:~$ emerald --replace
Segmentation fault
Then the top bar on all my windows disappears. I've reinstalled it multiple times, but it still won't cooperate. Please help me get Emerald to work.

Emerald is broken in 11.04.

See this link to fix it:

Yay, now it's working. I didn't know that it was broken for 11.04. Thanks for your help.
