Setting the environment variable LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=TRUE in the profile, as pointed by Albert (trisk), solves the problem of gnome-appearance-properties, since the "Visual Effects" tab now show the options to enable the effects from compiz.
Trying to start compiz directly using /usr/bin/start-compiz also works, since it sets the correct environment variables. Unfortunately, in both cases, I still don't have an working desktop. After compiz start, my screen becomes garbage. I'm still looking for a solution of the problem but, thanks to Albert, I'm making progress.
