Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

I am using a fresh install of Karmic beta using compiz version
1:0.8.3+git20090917-0ubuntu4.

Setting the Visual Effects in System->Preferences->Appearance to Normal or Extra works OK until I log out.  When I log back in the Visual Effects setting has returned to None, ie: it's setting was not saved with the session.  I can reset Visual Effects back to Normal or Extra with no problem, until I log off again. 
 I would expect the Visual Effects to remain set at the level previously requested.
