The problem affects NX, too.
Both NX Client and NoMachine Player.
Even with the newest Unity update from today.
The workaround still is:
cd /usr/lib/nux

Maybe you could install NX, I see they do a mac client.

If you are at a remote location, you can ssh into the machine to do

Im not very clear on what I have to do BEFORE I try to "delete

Workaround which solved this for me is to delete
/tmp/unity_support_test.0 before attempting remote login. See Bug
889996.

We saw from one log batch that after such a crash (not exit(1), but
after a SIGSEGV) gnome-session tried restarting compiz a few times, but

maybe you can exit 1 so that in that case, gnome-session is trying to

not a lot will work in compiz.

There are two elements to this:
/1/ a fairly unusual error condition that I've yet to identify; and,
/2/ poor error handling in compiz
The error condition causes CompositeScreen::CompositeScreen to call
setFailed() - which should simply cause the composite plugin to fail
loading (and normally wo
