           Summary: Can not enable desktop effects in KDE4
           Product: openSUSE 11.0
           Version: Final
          Platform: i686
        OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: KDE4 Workspace
        AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de
        ReportedBy: ruchir.brahmbhatt@ecosmob.com

After upgrading kde4 to kde-4.1.3 I could no longer enable desktop effects in
kde. It says 
"
Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options.
Settings will be reverted to their previous values.

Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advanced options,
especially changing the compositing type.
"

Then I upgraded to kde-4.2 through opensuse unstable repository but then also I
can't get desktop effects to work with kde4

My xorg.conf is as below:
