This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.7.4-0ubuntu1
---------------
compiz (1:0.9.7.4-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in CompositeScreen::compositingActive()
- Window management - Closing one window sends others to the
background (LP: #888704)
- [regression] Invisible resize border is now only 1px wide (LP: #953839)
- Coverity REVERSE_INULL - CID 10888 (LP: #957572)
- Unity dash opens and immediately closes if you tap Super+A
quickly (LP: #960831)
- Unity 5.8: Flickering and corruption on Unity UI elements (LP: #963093)
- Unity 5.8: Can't login to Unity since upgrade to 5.8 (LP: #963465)
- [regression] Unity 5.8+Compiz 0.9.7.2: Pressing Super+Tab or
Super+W works, but unity does not respond to when Super is
released. (LP: #963470)
- Unity 5.8: Login to blank screen (all black or just wallpaper)
(LP: #963633)
- Tests do not build when libgtest-dev is installed but libgtest
isn't (LP: #964248)
- Note that this fix is REMOVED for stability reasons:
Unity/compiz intercepts Super and Alt keypresses from grabbed
windows like VMs. (806255)
* debian/patches/ubuntu-config.patch:
- tweak slightly the shadow border for both active/inactive windows.
- change the shortcuts as per design request: (LP: #969235)
Ctrl + Super + D Minimises all windows
Ctrl + Super + Cursor up Maximises the current window
Ctrl + Super + Cursor down Restores or minimises current window
* debian/rules, debian/compiz-gnome.gconf-defaults:
- move the default for the unity-less default profile from DEFAULT_PLUGINS
list as it seems compiz tries to load that list, then ccp, then the
profile list.
- put the active_plugins list back to the Default profile in gconf then.
* debian/control:
- set Standards-Version to latest
* remove debian/patches/always_replace.patch,
debian/patches/exit_1_if_composite_cant_init.patch,
debian/patches/reset_active_plugin_list.patch,
debian/reset-compiz-gconf, debian/compiz-gnome.install:
- the 3 bad hacks are now not necessary anymore (LP: #963264)
* remove as now in upstream tarball:
- debian/patches/fix_953839.patch
- debian/patches/revert_lim.patch
- debian/patches/fix_953089_2.patch
- debian/patches/fix_960831.patch

Bug description:
WORKAROUND/FIX:
unity --reset
TEST CASE:
Edit ~/.gconf/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/%gconf.xml and add an
entry AFTER composite and BEFORE opengl for a dummy plugin name that does not
exist. Log out and in again.
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
After the update earlier today to Unity 5.8, I've found that when I try
logging into Unity 3D, all I get is a solid black screen and my mouse cursor. I
know it loaded some sort of desktop though, since I could still hit Ctrl+Alt+T
and blindly type `sudo reboot` followed by my password to make my computer do a
normal reboot.
I do not get the same problem with GNOME Shell or Unity 2D (the latter
of which I'm using now to report this bug), although for both the
screen does temporarily turn black but only for a moment. Unity 5.6 3D
used to work perfectly fine for me.
