This bug was fixed in the package xorg - 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1
---------------
xorg (1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1) bionic; urgency=medium
* x11-common.preinst:
- Rename nux config leftovers which might change the environment
even when not running an unity session (LP: #1768610)
* debian/control:
- x11-common breaks nux-tools (<< 4.0.8+18.04.20180613.5-0ubuntu1) - this
version contains the fixed conffile; if it's installed on the system we
need people to be upgraded to the new version.

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
GNOME shell and other 3D programs run using software rendering after
unity removal.
This SRU covers only the upgrade case or if nux-tools removal happens
after this update, for people who already upgraded and in broken state
another SRU will follow.
[ Test case - FOR WHO UPGRADES TO BIONIC/ARTFUL ]
· Install xenial
· Upgrade (nux-tools) and ensure that unity is still properly running after
a logout/login cycle.
· Upgrade to bionic or artful
(assuming you're using a GNOME session)
· sudo apt remove nux-tools
· log into your session
. From terminal:
- printenv LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE
Should print nothing (and return an error)
Same should happen if you don't remove nux-tools but you change
`/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test` not to run properly (replace with a script
exiting 1), but you're running a GNOME session.
· If running Unity session instead, ensure that
printenv LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE equals 1 in case that you're running
in an environment with no 3d support (VMs are easy tests)
[ Test case - FOR WHO HAS ALREADY UPGRADED TO BIONIC/ARTFUL AND
REMOVED UNITY ]
· remove nux-tools from artful/bionic-release (pre-sru), upgrade,
reinstall nux-tools (no prompt)
· remove nux-tools from bionic-proposed/updates (sru), upgrade, reinstall
nux-tools (nothing should be prompted)
· modify config file, remove nux-tools, upgrade, reinstall nux-tools (should
prompt)
· install nux-tools, upgrade, no prompt
You end up with either no /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support,
its new contents or you are asked what to do if you've changed it
before. Never the old content.
[ Regression Potential ]
Unity desktops with no 3d support could not start anymore.
===========================
After an upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04, I noticed that all gnome windows
animations were gone. After some digging, it seems that gnome-session
incorrectly assumes that my graphics has no acceleration, when in fact
it does: it's a i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz with Intel integrated graphics
(i915 driver).
I've tried this with and without the xserver-xorg-video-intel package
(a.k.a. Intel driver) with the same behavior.
The output of gnome-session-check-accelerated is: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0,
256 bits) however the system should have DRM 2.0 capability.
GL checks (e.g. glxinfo, glxgears produce the expected output from a
working DRM system).
mesa-utils and mesa-utils-extra are both installed.
I can't find a work around. Perhaps there is something wrong with my
install/upgrade?
Everything else works fine, although the graphical transitions are no
longer smooth. But it would be nice to restore the expected behavior.
I have attached the log of 'journalctl -b0'
