Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

I have installed Kubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat (beta) Updated to date (RC packages I think).

My motherboard is ASUS M2A-VM HDMI with integrated video card ATI Radeon x1250.
Using free drivers xserver-xorg-video-radeon 1:6.13.1-1ubuntu5, libgl1-mesa-dri 7.9~git20100924-0ubuntu1.

Have acceleration:
$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

But the desktop effects are disabled and from SystemSettings in "Desktop Effects" all options are disabled and I can not change any option of them.

Maybe this is related to:
