Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: desktop-effects

When the metacity compositing is enabled (gconf key
app/metacity/general/compositing_manager), it is not possible to enable
desktop effects from the appearance dialog. The dialog just says not
able to enable effects.

Could this be modified to turn of compositing in metacity before
attempting to start compiz.

FYI, I found that this was the reason that desktop effects weren't
working by running the compiz-check script
(http://forlong.blogage.de/article/pages/Compiz-Check) -- it may be
worth checking this for any other useful functionality which could be
tested when enabling effects.
