Have you installed emerald-kde3? How are you attempting to enable Emerald? Does the rest of Compiz work properly?
At the moment, -kde3 compiz and emerald cannot be installed simultaneously with non-kde3 compiz and emerald due to bug 57 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=57). That bug is next on my list of problems to deal with.

So I finally found some time to (try and) set up compiz on my laptop again. It used to work on 8.04, but seems to be broken now. If I install only compiz stuff with -kde3, I can use only the sluggish gtk window decorator. If I try and install emerald I have non-kde3 dependencies. This of course does not install cleanly because it says "already in package XY." Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
