Okay, for those like me who cannot live without Emerald Themes and this is probably ADA (against developers advice) so use at your own risk. Here is how I got it all working:
- Turn off compiz and turn back on marco
- using synaptic package manager I UNINSTALLED
MATE Compiz and then INSTALLED ALL of the regular compiz files - Then I installed the library for emerald and then I installed emerald (and some themes):
(I uploaded a couple files you may need)
a. The emerald library engine: https://backup.filesanywhere.com/fs/v.aspx?v=8d69678f5b5e71b19fa8
b. The latest emerald: https://backup.filesanywhere.com/FS/v.aspx?v=8d69678f5a676ea970a0
- Finally, using compiz settings manager I placed emerald --replace in the window decorator and;
- In startup programs I placed a compiz entry: compiz --replace
Then I rebooted, ran emerald and chose a theme logged out and back in and
THERE SHE WAS!!!
