desktop effects

You seem to be talking about Beryl, a window manager which uses OpenGL to 
render the windows (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryl_(window_manager)).

It is no problem to use Beryl with KDE. Take a look at the above linked 
wikipedia site, and you will notice that in fact the first screenshot is 
showing a KDE desktop with Beryl in action. Usually KDE comes with the Kwin 
window manager, but it can be replaced by Beryl during runtime or through 
other measures - I recommend searching on your distribution's website / 
forum / ... for how to get Beryl running with KDE.

Cheers,
Patrick.

(btw.: I'm using Beryl + KDE for quite some time)
