Comment 1 for bug 161106

In Hardy Alpha 3 with all updates to date (2008-01-24), generally the first to log in gets Compiz and subsequent users do not, even if they have got Advanced Desktop Effects enabled by default.

There is no warning, most users will find this counter-intuitive and confusing. Because Switch Users is most likely to be used by families sharing a computer, the users who encounter this bug will generally not be very experienced. They may report duplicate bugs or clog up support forums.

Therefore I have added two wishlists related to this bug:

Bug #185586 - Users should be warned when switching users disables Compiz

Bug #185599 - Missing option to disable Fast User Switching
