Hello guys, first of forgive me if this thread does not belong here. (maybe software forum).
Setup
Nvidia - glx - compiz - ubuntu
I installed compiz in ubuntu and well after a week or so I finally got it working. But, something kinda went wrong. compiz starts fine and everything, but I cant seem to change the theme at all. When I start CGWD themer, there s themes that I ve installed and the defaults that came with the CGWD-themer-themes package. but nothing happens when I click on any of them. Im sure its something small but I cant seem to find the problem. I used "thefuture" setup as the other ones I tried did not work well in my system. I tried searching but Im kinda stuck on this one so I have to ask for some help. Thanks guys....
Ok guys thanks for all your replies... lol I fixed the problem so that s that... There were two lines of code missing in my /usr/bin/thefuture. I kinda knew that was the problem but I didnt know what lines to add. but in the end it all worked out. Ok now another problem. CGWD and all work well and its a great setup, but since that my keyboard keeps messing up. Everytime I reboot I have to change my keyboard settings because it keeps switching keys around, like the Y for z and Z fo y, so anyone have a fix for this? thanks
I think this is a first. The person that posted the questions posts the answers. lol Anyways again, I fixed my other problem about the keyboard. On the code that I had added to thefuture file, I use the wrong keyboard setting, I changed it to my defauld keyboard and now it all works, so we can end this thread now I guess.
