Can you check your /etc/xorg/xorg.conf if the Composite extension is listed there?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 894132] Re: unity does not start using xinerama and multi-monitor
@bilalakhtar: soulsource just added his similar experience with AMD, so I don't think this is specific to NVidia. I discovered that there is a tool which is supposed to test for Unity 3D support. I don't know if this is used to decide whether to fire up Unity 3D when you log in, but on my system it incorrectly reports that Unity 3D *is* supported, so that may explain why my system hangs when I try to log in with the default session.

No, its not cleaned on startup. It seems like there was no crash in the first place. I'm sorry to hear your case Captain Chaos. But 90% of your issues are because of the NVIDIA proprietary driver.
