You already had CF working and you disabled Trevino's repos just to install Amarnath repos?? I'm not able to understand your query correctly...

follow this thread: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=66392
replace all 'install' wid 'remove' then comment the amarnath repos by prefixing a '#' in /etc/apt/sources.list.

add this repo to sources.list:
Code:
#travinos repos
deb [URL="*download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb"]*download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb[/URL] feisty eyecandy
deb-src [URL="*download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb"]*download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb[/URL] feisty eyecandy

to install compiz:
Code:
sudo apt-get install compiz  # compiz-gnome AND/OR compiz-kde

to install compizconfig:
Code:
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager # compizconfig-backends-* ?!
to install compiz fusion plugins
Code:
sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-*

thats it :)

Sorry for totally being off topic.
If i am not mistaken isnt that the Thunder Cats logo that you got as an avaatar.
Where and how the interest ?

Trevino's repos may be system hogging, but atleast they are trouble free and work properly...

u dont have to download anything again, CF's deb package will be on ur ubuntu cache folder.

just remove(along with config files) and reinstall.
