[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1412937@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.3.2+15.10.20150512-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.3.2+15.10.20150512-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Add new signal to tell the Launcher to terminate keynav mode and use
    that signal when a BFB quicklist item is chosen. (LP: #1052024,
    #1444643)
  * Add option to enable and disable Unity low graphics mode on the fly
    in ccsm or via gsettings. (LP: #1412937)
  * Remove code that is no longer needed and broke opening application
    spread while in Launcher keynav mode. (LP: #1445082)
  * Save the active window when showing the Dash so the correct window
    is focused when hiding the Dash. Fixes issue when "Always on Top"
    windows are present. (LP: #1446634)
  * Save the active window when showing the Hud so the correct window is
    focused when hiding the Hud. Fixes issue when "Always on Top"
    windows are present. (LP: #1366583)
  * Send signal to ensure the Dash will show when entering keynav mode
    since the first icon always highlighted is the BFB. (LP: #1444113)
  * When looking for the top-most valid window in a VP, also check if
    the window is focused if the window is set to Always on Top. This
    allows Launcher icon spread to work properly when a window is
    minimized an Always on Top exists in the group. (LP: #1131385)
  * When using the left arrow to exit a Quicklist, Launcher keynav is
    implied and should be active regardless of how the Quicklist was
    opened. (LP: #1444626)

  [ Eleni Maria Stea ]
  * The skydome rendering of the cube plugin was wrong with unity
    because transformation matrices set by the unityshell plugin were
    left in the opengl matrix stacks affecting other compiz plugins.
    Saving the compiz state at the beginning of the unityshell plugin
    rendering functions and restoring it at the end of them fixes the
    problem. (LP: #1446165)

Title:
  Config option to set UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE=1

Bug description:
  Right now the procedure to turn on low_gfx_mode is
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1293384/comments/15

  "sudo -H gedit /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/ubuntu.session
  Remove "compiz" from the RequiredComponents list

  sudo -H gedit /usr/share/upstart/sessions/unity7.conf:

  Add these lines after "export COMPIZ_CONFIG_PROFILE":
  env UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE="1"
  export UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE"

  We should add a config option (preferably system wide) to tell
  Compiz/Unity to go to the LOW_GFX mode regardless of what the hardware
  says it can do.

  This will make it easier to setup items like terminal services using
  Unity.   This procedure has helped in at least one case for me, (a
  machine used by several users remotely using Unity).  I can imagine it
  would also help in multiseat scenarios, etc.
