Yesterday, I installed a new theme for my laptop (Ubuntu 11.04(32-bit)) and soon after, I noticed that the animations I set up were not showing up anymore. Before the installation, everything worked fine. The theme is called MacBuntu 11.04. (Not the original one)
View 9 RepliesI backed up .themes from /home, but on trying to install them (files don't show as theme packages) it says "There was an error installing the selected file, index.theme doesn't appear to be a valid theme". Did I backup the right thing?

I'm not sure if it's readable on some computers, but there are two folders within the main folder. They are labeled as gtk-2.0, metacity-1, and a notepad file called "ColorBit" which is the name of the the actual theme.
The notepad file has some writing in it, which reads:

I've just been trying to install the Humanity theme from 9.10 into 10.4.Just install the human-theme package:
Code:
sudo apt-get install human-theme
Now you'll see Human and Human-Clearlooks in System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Theme.
actually installed it for the second time of my life (gave it a try more) just yesterday.It works brilliant.The only problem I have is with the animations in Compiz. I got the CompizConfig Setting Manager and I'm operating from there.It wont work.I have installed my graphics driver, and the other effects work properly

View 1 Replies View RelatedRecently something got updated and for a short while, before I restarted, the changing workspaces animation changed to something I liked better than the usual arrows boxes, but after the restart it changed back. The thing I liked was that when I use ctrl + alt to change to a different workspace, the animation shows what programs and windows are open at a particular workspace. This happened twice already and always after an update and before the necessary restart. I looked for an option to modify that but didn't find anything so far. I am using ubuntu 10.04. How can I change these options to my liking?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've recently installed Ubuntu on my laptop, and I installed Compiz from the software center. I went to the animations section and set different animations, but they don't take effect. I've tried disabling them and re-enabling, I've tried restarting, but nothing is working. What can I do to fix this?
View 4 Replies View Relatedin CCSM i don't have the burn effect, i have animations checked marked, i was reading somewhere where i had to enable or check mark extra plugins i cant see that anywhere?
Did they do away with that effect/plugin? i'm using Ubuntu 10.04 is that makes a difference?
So I can't seem to get my launcher to work right after a fresh install of ubuntu 11.04. No matter what I do, I can't get my launcher to hide. I went into ccsm, and under ubuntu unity plugin I tried all four options under the hide launcher menu (never, autohide, dodge windows, dodge active windows) - nothing gets it to hide! The launcher covers up a good chunk of whatever window is open (i.e. a website, or more importantly, the back and forward buttons in chrome). In unity 2D, I don't have this problem. I also saw that when I enabled and disabled the unity plugin, I got this error when I re-enabled.I tried resolving the conflicts favoring the unity plugin, and when that didn't work, the desktop wall.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI currently have my open/close animation set to Glide in Compiz. However, aside from normal windows like Chrome and Nautilus, the glide effect is applied to Avants animations.I would like the Avant animations to fade in and not use the glide effect.I have looked at the rules and have done a little tinkering, but I haven't found the rule that would make this work.

I don't care if I get Grid from the git repository or from some other source (I don't understand why it is missing from ccsm in the first place, it got installed automatically under 9.10),
I tried using ccsm to get the cube desktop working on ubuntu 10.04. After reading through many of the forums here on how to get the cube working I still could not find an answer for 10.04. Changed my settings with gconf-editor to disable Nautilus show desktop and a few other recommended setting and nothing worked. Also, for some reason, ccsm did not have the Wallpaper option (its supposed to be under utility), and I think it was necessary for the cube in some way.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some reason, from time to time on login, as my normal theme starts to load, it changes to some sort of silver theme (a very basic one), and I am unable to change it over to any other theme. Checking the theme being used, it still says my desired one is set, but it is not. Also, no matter what theme I change it to, that basic silver theme is the one being used. This includes a default icon theme, not the one I prefer.
The only option that seems to fix things is a restart, and the hope that on this login it won't mess up like before.I am using Natty, from a fresh install, with Ubuntu Classic as my desktop, and have reinstalled things more than once to try and fix a few of the Natty-related issues, but this one keeps coming back.
