Have you used the Compiz PPA?

[watgrad (watgrad)]

yes - I tried to install compiz from tweak - that was a disaster! I had to
remove it and then reinstall from the software centre. Compiz now runs
fine, but tweak throws this error...

yes - I tried to install compiz from tweak - that was a disaster! The install was incomplete, compiz wouldn't run, no window manager... I had to remove it and then reinstall from the software centre.
Compiz now runs fine, but tweak throws this error...

[Ding Zhou (tualatrix)]

Sorry to hear that.

So, try to install two packages:

  sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra

Then try again.

[watgrad (watgrad)]

Thanks for your help. Terminal says:
compiz-fusion-plugins-main is already the newest version.
compiz-fusion-plugins-extra is already the newest version.

Hi, Please try this version of Ubuntu Tweak. I've attached.

Download and install, see whether is can work with Compiz settings.

[watgrad (watgrad)]

Thanks!
That fixed the problem. Everything works again.
