Chris, are you able to boot in recovery mode, or boot into an alternate
desktop? If so, then you should be able to file a bug.
Additionally, how did this come about? Did you update and have this
issue? Does a livecd from say, today's daily image, boot up and load a
live session on the machine? Does re-installing unity help at all? I
would start trying to debug the source of the problem via these
questions; probably before I even filed the bug so I would be able to
give good information. When your ready file a bug against unity (and
mention it's video related, hence it will also file against compiz).
ubuntu-bug unity
Hope this helps!

Unity is not working on my older Toshiba A70, once I log in (This machine
automatically falls over to Unity-2d in 12.04 and prior).
Right now I am staring at a nice royal blue screen. The touch pad can move
the cursor but that is about it. no decoration of any kind. no response to
right clicks.
I can ctrl alt f1 into a terminal session.
at the end of syslog i see warnings few gnome-session:
WARNING: App 'compiz.desktop' respawning too quickly
CRITICAL: We failed, but the fail whale is dead. sorry...
not sure how to file a bug report for this.
