I installed the Atlantis transparent cube plugin and now all I have on my screen are folders and fish.

I can't:

  • open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T
  • open the run dialogue box with Alt+F2
  • get Ctrl+Alt+F1 to do what I need (unity --reset)

I have been using the computer in guest mode, but I can't do this forever ...at least, I hope won't need to.

You have to delete your compiz config file.

Open a virtual console:

ctrl+alt+F1

stop the login manager:

sudo stop lightdm

delete your compiz settings:

rm -rf .config/compiz-1/

start lightdm 

sudo start lightdm

log into ubuntu again.

If your aim is to open ccsm then simply open a folder on your Desktop & browse to /usr/share/applications.

Double left click on the Compizconfig Settings Manager icon.

If in similar with no folders on the Desktop then right click > create one, ect.

If you have another DE such as gnome shell you can configure compiz(by pressing reset button in preferences) from it and re-log to Unity read this also.
