Desktop Effects Missing


I'm in openSUSE right now, and I have the Compiz fusion settings manager. However, the Desktops Effects application is missing from System > Look and Feel. Is there anyway I can get it back, as I currently do not have any effects enabled?

No, it's not there either. It used to be in System > Look and Feel. However, it is not there anymore.

Is there a repository where I can get it?

You did not answer my question about the version of opensuse ,
because the places where you can find those things differs from version to version
