I confirm this bug, and it's present in intrepid.

If I running metacity and execute this :
gconftool-2 --type bool --set "/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager" 
"true"

Ok, I'am running metacity with compositing, but If I try :
System->Preferences->Appearance->Effects Tab and Try to activate any 
(Normal|Extra|Custom) Effect, the Ubuntu says that if not possible to actvate 
effects. 

Then I run this :
gconftool-2 --type bool --set "/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager" 
"false"

Now, I can go System->Preferences->Appearance->Effects Tab and runs any
(Normal|Extra|Custom) Effect without errors message.
