I can confirm this problem, I also have an Nvidia (5700 GO) and when enabling the effects the window manager does not work. Compiz however works fine (the switcher and cube do work). When I try manually to run 'compiz --replace' and 'gtk-window-decorator --replace', compiz also works but gtk-window-decorator just does nothing. When try to run it through gdb (file gtk-window-decorator, start --replace) I don't get any useful output either. Beryl did work with the same nvidia driver and xorg.conf on edgy.
