This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.8.4-0ubuntu2

---------------
compiz (1:0.9.8.4-0ubuntu2) quantal; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/unity_support_test.patch:
    - force llvmpipe in the unity profile if we are in the grey zone, meaning:
      the card and drivers have opengl support, however, it doesn't met unity
      requirements (opengl < 1.4, no vertex shaders support…). Thanks duflu
      (LP: #1039155)
      Note that we already discourage them to upgrade from precise to quantal
      with a warning before the upgrade, however let's get a slow ui rather
      than none on the iso as well.

** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu Quantal)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Released
