Sebastien,

Desktop effects are in use, however, if memory serves me correctly this
has been a bug in Gnome long before the advent of XGL/Beryl/Compiz (I
can test this later this evening).  I am currently using desktop effects
in my environment.

Simplest repro steps are as follow:

1) Install Pidgin/Gaim and sign in to an account of your choice.

2) Enable and configure AIM/Pidgin's "Message Notification" plugin to
"Set window manager 'URGENT' hint".

3) Open an IM window on workspace 1.

4) Switch to another workspace and wait until an IM is received (if you
have multiple accounts, they would come in handy here), which should set
the "URGENT" hint and cause the button to appear and glow/strobe in the
window list on your current workspace (even though the window is on
workspace 1).

5) Once the IM is received and said window list button is
glowing/strobing, right-click on it and select the "Always on Visible
Workspace" option.

Let me know if you would like more details or a video capture of the
process.  Thanks!

Regards,
Campbell Krueger
