That will do it. The program that provides the visual effects is
Compiz. When you turn them on, Compiz replaces the simpler program
with no effects, which is called Metacity.

Both of them are the programs that draw the "chrome" on windows: the
title bars, menu/minimize/maximize/close buttons, the corners & edges
you drag to resize the window, etc.
