Compiz now refuses to show four desktop pictures

[Ray Parrish]

Hello,

I have been trying to get the Ubuntu Compiz cylindrical desktop to work, 
and have been following instructions at

<http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftombuntu.com%2Findex.php%2F2008%2F07%2F31%2Finstall-three-experimental-compiz-plugins%2F&ei=V-OWSueyJ42oswPg1bnGDA&usg=AFQjCNG_20_7lhvRHp2x8GTKi0x9DJfaCw&sig2=x4Cm7V1IiraYpScYphJq9g>

Which does not seem to be loading now for some reason.

I made sure Compiz was installed from the new updates at

<http://ppa.launchpad.net/compiz/ubuntu>

and attempted installation of the plugins by following the instructions 
at the first page above.

I got to this point, where installation failed.

:~$ cd ~/compizplugins/atlantis2
:~/compizplugins/atlantis2$ make
Makefile:48: *** [ERROR] Compiz not installed.  Stop.

Also, after updating to the newer version of Compiz, I no longer have 
different pictures on each of my desktops, they are all the same, even 
'though I have set up more than enough images in the Cube settings in 
Compiz to show one on each desktop.

I made sure the Nautilus settings in gconfig were not changed somehow, 
so they are still correct for showing four desktop pictures instead of 
the same one on all of them like I have now.

Does anyone know how to correct these problems?

Thanks, Ray Parrish
