A colleague has a netbook with intel video, and he has lucid ubuntu netbook remix installed. If he plugs an external monitor with dual head, the effects are automatically disabled. This is way more elegant than just crashing :-) I don't know if it's an ubuntu-specific or compiz feature, but KDE should also suspend compositing automatically when a second monitor is used in a dual head setup, at least for models which don't support it.
