To use the transition scripts, you must run gnome-session rather than launching GNOME desktop components from a custom session. Choose the GNOME session from GDM, or 'exec gnome-session' from ~/.xsession (and remove any gnome components or window manager you are starting by hand). (This will also prevent the problem of components like 'panel' changing with new GNOME releases.)
