This is getting really weird :-)

Well, you should see the cube if:

- Compiz is installed, running and set as default window manager (done)
- Cube effects are present and enabled (done)
- You change your workspace by using the mentioned keybinding (Ctrl + Alt 
+ Left/Right Arrow) to see the cube rotating (done, I suppose...)

Are you getting other effects that involve moving the window (e.g., zoom 
in/out, slow motion...)?
