[Bug 1308626] [NEW] Glitching and no unity showing after vmware easy install

 

Public bug reported:

I installed trusty final i386 via vmware easy install.  Everything went
fine and I was able to login at the greeter.  After that, I saw the
wallpaper, but no chrome, and there was some graphical glitching.  I had
a cursor initially.  Using super key made everything turn black.
