I get a similar compiz error on amd64.  In my case, booting 3.16.0.6
kernels or before work fine.

Booting amd64 3.16.0-7, -8, -9, -10 kernels on the same install the
desktop runs but compiz hence unity do not.

Booting the newer .iso the live session fails the same way.  Follow
through with the install and of course compiz etc. fail.

booting the 3.16.0-6 amd64 .iso runs fine.

I don't know if it is the same install are the different kernels chosen
out of /boot using the same Intel video driver?

Do note, i386 32 bit 3.16.0-10 install and kernel on the same pc run
fine (for a development version).

How different is the 32 bit and the 64 bit compiz?

Of course, amd64 Lubuntu runs fine.  Lubuntu doesn't use compiz I think.
