I'm still having problems with Compiz...

I did everything that you imagine... but "animation add-on" still does not appear in Compiz...

I have already done the command apt-get install compiz-plugins-extras and compiz-plugins* to install all plugins but Compiz still does not show the "Animation add-on"...

What can I do?

I know this is not a big problem, but in any part of internet, people say how to enable the"Animation add-on" they but already know this.

I want to know how to get a "complete" install of Compiz with all plugins.

Please post step by step. (If I have to add new repository, if I have to move paste, if I have to download and extract and install the plugin)... Step by step....

I think it will help a lot of people who still have this question.

  • I'll say that I followed that link and the important tip that it gave me was to press Alt-F2 then run compiz --replace...I already had everything installed but it just wasn't working. – MalcolmOcean Nov 22 '15 at 05:58

I tried the same as you did before I found out that the packages compiz-plugins-extra and the experimental ones are just transitional dummy packages. These have been available for 12.04 and were dropped in 12.10 and up. It's pretty said, I loved them as well. So the only way I can think of is to get the deb-package from 12.04's repos and extract the files to their respective directory (I do not know if this works; never tried it) or downgrade to 12.04.

  • so you're telling me that this problem has no solution?... but there is videos on youtube... of people did it work... – Wesley Silva Jul 21 '13 at 20:43

  • So Add-on will not work... thx!!.. but on youtube and in other forums there is people saying that is possible install the "Animation Add-on"... – Wesley Silva Jul 21 '13 at 21:40
  • I have found something regarding experimental plugins for Compiz, but I haven't used them in Raring, only Precise. You might wanna take a look at this page link –  Jul 23 '13 at 18:43

always go to this website if you are unable to find what you want on the software center

http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/trusty/universe/base/compiz-plugins-extra

go to the download section and press on the all arch deb package ... this works for 14.04 i'm pretty sure it will work for you cheers have a great day
