Unable to make Window transparent in Ubuntu 12.10

I have recently upgraded from ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 12.10 (x64).
I used to have transparent window tittle bar using gconf-editor -> apps -> gwd.
But in 12.10 editing the value isn't doing nothing.
Also in ccsm many plugins such as: opacity, brightness, saturation, desktop cube and rotate cube are all gone.
I love that transparent look very much and I want to get it back in 12.10.

I'm using Nvidia 7200GS ; AMD Athlon 7750 ; 3GB Ram.

Is there any way to get it working?

finally I have solved the transparent window tittle problem using

dconf editor.
Anyone finding the same issue can find solution using my procedures.

instead of gconf-editor we have to use dconf-editor.

go to ..

dconf-editor --> org  --> compiz --> gwd

and set the value manually.
Works fine for me.
