Potential fix below.

When I ran 'gnome-appearance-properties' from a terminal, I saw a few
errors like:

   /usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Warn: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32

To resolve this issue, I added to following two lines:

        Option          "AddARGBGLXVisuals"             "True"
        Option          "DisableGLXRootClipping"        "True"

to the "Screen" section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and restarted X
Windows (logout of Gnome and at the login screen, press Ctrl-Alt-
Backspace, then login again).

After logging back in again, enabling desktop effects worked.

Some specs:
 - nVidia Go 7600 video card
 - Using the nvidia Xorg driver (not nv)
 - Kernel version: 2.6.22-8-generic
 - compiz package version 1:0.5.1+git20070725-0ubuntu1
