Bug report time :-D Would you like to do the honours? Looks like there are two bugs here: 1) Effects don't always get applied on your Linux machine, and 2) DropShadow's doesn't work properly (on Rectangles?) I didn't notice the lack of blurriness until you mentioned it -- never used DropShadow myself.
