After updating to kde 4.5.1, desktop effects stopped.
Firstly compare the OpenGL vendor and renderer strings output by glxinfo to the blacklist entries in ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc. If that doesn't give you a smoking gun, try enabling debug output with kdebugdialog and restarting kwin in a shell (kwin --replace) to see its reasoning (lines with KWin::CompositingPrefs in them). In 4.5.0 some effects that required hardware shader support worked although they were not supposed to, because a software fallback took over, but AFAIK this only affected the intel driver. I think this loophole was closed for 4.5.1 because the Mesa fallback was slow.
