I upgraded from Debian Lenny to Ubuntu Karmic (blew away and reinstalled / but kept /home). Now I can't edit the config settings using either compizconfig-settings-manager or gconf-editor.

When I change settings using ccsm, they take for a few seconds, then they mysteriously change back to the previous settings. When I change them using gconf-editor, the setting changes in gconf but nothing happens on the screen. For example, changing hsize from 2 to 4 has no effect.

TIA for any clues.
