D, FYI gnome-session-flashback is a supported package in Ubuntu, so using a PPA (not supported in Ubuntu) is not necessary:
apt-cache policy gnome-session-flashback

Title:
  connecting 2x 4k screens on a Dell XPS12 (9Q33): compiz crashed with
  SIGSEGV in GLTexture::matrix()

Bug description:
  this is a new bug report following #1455598

  The relevant details i think are;
  - I own a Dell XPS12 (9Q33) and recently i have had 2 external monitors hooked to that through the (mini) display ports. The Screens are from the type Dell P2815Q. The screens have the ability to use Daisy chain (MST=>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort#Multiple_displays_on_single_DisplayPort_connector), but it fails if i connect my laptop with 2x 4k external monitors. If i try it, it shows me some quick lines of text and returnes me to the login screen. If i turn _off_ the secondairy screen, it does login with 1 external monitor at 4k. If i setup the resolution to 2x 2,5k on the external monitors, it does work. Both at the office (where there are as well 2 Dell monitors with 2,5k resolution (2500xsomething) but from a different type). I think the problem is with the 4k resolutions. The setup does work on Windows 8.1 Pro, so i can use my main screen at 1920x1080 as 2x 4k external screens (although its on 30Hz, but thats due to the display port 1.2 specification i think). I haven't tried to connect the laptop with the main screen disabled/closed, so im gonna try that soon. But even if that works, i still think it's a bug as it seems to work on Windows.
  - - I've updates the bios to A08, 03/03/2015 (the output from dmidecode), but if i connect the laptop (with the laptopscreen enabled) to the 2x 4k screens, it just logs me out.
  - I've found that if i disable the laptopscreen and try to use 2x 4k, it works!. Everything is really small though.. ;-)
  - also, i found out that working with the 2x 4k screens (and the laptop-builtin-screen disabled), it goes into slumber or powerdown mode. If it does, i can't succesfully get it out and have to restart the machine. I'm gonna test some more on that, but it might be related to switching back to 3 screens afer coming out of slumber.
