  2. Same error as above. been trying a million things to get this to work. Do you think perhaps it is the version of Compiz. I am currently using 0.9.4.0. I'm thinking I need to remove and install 0.8.6.0 (latet stable) - just a pain though.

  3. Just FYI, there's a 64-bit deb out there on gnome-look.org that includes this plugin and many others, in case you're having a hard time compiling the plugin from source by itself (which I was). Just search gnome-look.org for "Compiz Experimental Plugins U/D 3-18-12"
