In *theory* it is possible to run compiz without gconf
and with a program that stores the configuration data
outside compiz.

Each time compiz is started you could repopulate the
settings from your stored values.  They would be lost
from compiz on each restart.

Like I said, in theory it might be possible, but I do not
think that people would really want to do it.

The solution is to write a KDE based compiz configuration
plugin for compiz, this would then communicate via dbus.

Your startup script seems to be broken, it should start
compiz the same way for KDE as it does for Gnome.
