Public bug reported:
All graphics elements that depend on Unity do not work. However I am
able to login through lightdm and compiz loads, so I can have some GUI.
(I will update with pictures, once I figure out how to access my system
properly)
I have gone thoroughly over the updates that led to this issue and have
narrowed the culprit.
What I did was to go to /var/log/apt/history.log and manually follow the
trail of packages (including drivers) to isolate the issue. It turns out
since the last update of unity and systemd (+related) packages, unity
does not work with Nvidia's drivers any more. (I will update with the
history.log as soon as I can find a way to upload without unity).
However, compiz and lightdm work flawlessly at the moment and if I
revert updates (for unity and accompanying) way back, unity loads as
well.
Further updates will follow below.
