Public bug reported: My Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 VM became unusable (unity shell) a few days ago, and after some significant updates. Things are fine after I log in and until I try to do something. Then compiz will crash and my system becomes unusable. I do have sshd running and can connect via ssh to re-boot or shurdown or get new updates are whatever.
This bug report is being sent while logged on with GNOME shell, which also has been having issues since January 17th, ( see bug 1273276 ) but there is a workaround that allows me to use it. For the last few days, I see log entries in both kern.log and syslog saying about compiz complaing about segfaults. Everything was working fine for unity log in until a few days ago. (well, and as expected during the development phase, there have been issues.)
