Updated to date
2) Don't know
3) I'm expecting the system to give an X session, but it goes to a white screen. 
4) I get a white screen and the woraround I could find is to to the following steps

a) CTRL + ALT + F1
b) Login
c) sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
d) startx

After those 4 steps I can use the system with no other issues

I have Compiz enabled and the video board is an nvidia: 01:00.0 VGA
compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev a1)

Even not sure if related I can recall installing the ppa for Unity (

purposes
