No need to reboot, just press ALT+SHIFT+F12 to enable desktop effects
immediately.  (It used to just enable it automatically when you
checked the enable them at startup box, but I guess it doesn't
anymore...)

KDE 3 actually had rudimentary support for desktop effects in later
versions, which Konsole could use for transparency.  Before that, it
supported "fake transparency" which just used the desktop wallpaper as
a background to the terminal.
