Public bug reported:

Running latest Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS x64 and since the latest round of
update this week I am left without a desktop environment. Compiz(ver
1:0.9.11.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1) crashes every time and Unity cannot
load.

Weirdly enough, if I disable NVidia's drivers, it works. But my GPU runs
extremely hot, 100% fan speed and the visual environment is very
unresponsive - constant tearing and artifacts, everything is slow to
refresh, etc.

It was all running perfectly before with NVidia's drivers, but now
essentially I can't do anything outside of a terminal.
