Compositing in KWin is still a bit of a tech preview, that's why it's disabled 
by default. It works great for some people, not so great for others (e.g. 
occasional crashes) and not at all for the unlucky ones like you. (One thing 
worth trying would be setting the advanced settings to use XRender instead of 
OpenGL, however, that's probably going to be slow.)

GNOME uses Compiz for desktop effects, you can try that in KDE too: install 
compiz-kde, then use the "Compiz Switcher" to enable it.
