[solved]cant change any compiz-fusion options

ive got the icon in my tray, but wen i go to settings manager, nothin happens! i ran ccsm in a terminal, and got an error about locales! this is the read out;

[danny@archlinux ~]$ ccsm

(ccsm:13247): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Info: No sexy-python package found, don't worry it's optional.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 39, in <module>
    import ccm
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ccm/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from ccm.Conflicts import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ccm/Conflicts.py", line 29, in <module>
    locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 476, in setlocale
    return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
[danny@archlinux ~]$

i edited /etc/locale.gen to include just 1 locale. i then ran locale-gen as root;

[root@archlinux danny]# locale-gen
Generating locales...
  en_GB.ISO-8859-1... done
Generation complete.
[root@archlinux danny]# 

but got exactly the same error!!!

[danny@archlinux ~]$ ccsm
