Newbie using Mandriva and KDE. Compiz, emerald, ccsm, fusion-icon can't seem to work.
Hi, I've just installed Mandriva 2010.2 One and I have these problems to solve, first I can't runs ccsm, second I can't run fusion-icon (it doesn't appear on the tray) and I can't replace kwin with emerald.
This is the out put that I have with the next input to the terminal:
1) emerald --replace
emerald: error while loading shared libraries: libdecoration.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
2)fusion-icon
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/fusion-icon", line 57, in <module>
from FusionIcon.interface import choose_interface
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/FusionIcon/interface.py", line 22, in <module>
from util import env
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/FusionIcon/util.py", line 23, in <module>
import os, compizconfig, ConfigParser, time
ImportError: libcompizconfig.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
3)ccsm
Info: No sexy-python package found, don't worry it's optional.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 99, in <module>
import compizconfig
ImportError: libcompizconfig.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
And I already have installed all the needed compiz fusion, emerald and compiz-fusion-icon packages successfully installed.
Any help or suggestion? Some extra information needed? Please help!
Thank you all in advance.
Hello andrewthomas and sorry for disturbing this way, I had a really complicated day yesterday and this morning also, time here is 13:45 right now and I've just finished fixing all of the bugs that I created myself. The most convenient way to fix the audio, and dependencies troubles that I had earned trying to fix one thing and the other was re-isntalling the whole system and now I have finally everything working fine.
You'll see, yesterday when I read your reply I had fixed the problem 2 minutes before and just for being curious and trying something myself that I never thought that could be the solution but anyway, what I did was to remove and re-install all of the packages involved with compiz and emerald functionality and that was all but later I started having problems with audio codecs and the audio of the system as well, nothing seemed to be working any more.
My most sincere apologize for the inconvenient, my shame is indeed great...
Thank you for being present and wanting to help out.
