[Bug 663788] [NEW] "Extra" visual effects are reverted to "none" at random or when going into compiz settings manager

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Under lucid lynx I could use the "vanilla" extra visual effects with no problem watsoever (whobbly windows and transparent gnome-terminal with underlying open windows).
After upgrading to maverick meerkat I get weird behaviour; I enabled skewer and burn up effect on open/close and minimize/maximize, but even disabling advanced animation and leaving only wobbly windows and proper transparency, the extra effects get disabled behind my back during normal use, at random, or when I do something somehow "stressful" for the effect, such as opening the compiz settings manager from system>preferences
