I had the trusty daily iso from 2014.02.15. It installs and runs fine. I'm saying that this issue was introduced on approximately 2014.02.16 or 2014.02.17 The bug 1283671 referred to above says 2014.02.21, but I think it was a few days prior.

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.)
