Further Info
running compiz from a terminal showed unable to find 
/etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager
Googling I found information on a diversion that was stopping compiz, and ran.
<code>
sudo dpkg-divert --rename --remove /etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager
<code/>  with the result
Removing `diversion of /etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager to 
/etc/xdg/compiz/compiz-manager.ubuntu by xorg-driver-fglrx'

I now have desktop effects but this unsupported value issue has appeared
when running compiz from a terminal.

$ compiz
