After rebooting, all the UI is visible including the login screen and the Unity interface, but when any application is opened, its window is invisible. Notes: When the virtual machine is logged in with "Ubuntu 2D", I can run "compiz --replace" and get compiz working properly. The problem occurred on both a VM upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 and a fresh install of 11.10 (used for screencasts below). The problem occurred using both the guest additions package from "Additional Drivers" and the guest additions ISO shipped with VirtualBox.
