Public bug reported:
After enabling proprietary driver nvidia 361.42 in unity-control-center
and rebooting, compiz fails to start. I'm able to login. I see my
wallpaper and desktop icons, but there's no window manager or panel.
A manual fix that worked in the past was
right-click, open terminal
enter commands:
dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
setsid unity
