[Bug 980663] [NEW] Compiz won't start if "unredirect fullscreen windows" is enabled

 

Public bug reported:

Setting "unredirect fullscreen windows" in ccsm prevents compiz to start
on the next startup, the only visible part of the screen will be the
wallpaper. The only way to recover is logging into Unity-2d and
resetting the default compiz settings, where that option is disabled.

To reproduce, simply:
    - navigate to ccsm -> Composite
    - enable unredirect fullscreen windows
    - reboot
