This bug became pretty simple after all the testing (sorry about the
flood of updates).
All sessions initiated from sessions without Compiz running turn out ok, and
can be switched back to.
If you create a log-in from a user who has desktop effects enabled, the new
session will be corrupt no mat
You know what... it's not a duplicate, but I am in fact suffering from
two bugs.
Removing gnome-screensaver allows me to get back to the working
X-session (formerly known as the blank X-session with only an arrow
visible). However the new log-in is still corrupted if using Compiz.

I'm going to have to correct myself a bit here: turning off desktop
effects clearly helps, but does not eliminate the problem entirely.
A couple of times, what has happened since I disabled Compiz is that the
screen will remain black with only the cursor visible. It seems to
happen quite randomly,
Tried with the radeon.agpmode parameter. I discovered that the default
setting on my system is 4.
None of the tried settings (-1, 1, 2, 4) did anything to the but I noted
that the graphics corruption was different with the -1 setting.
I noted a couple of things in my dmesg that I am not sure are
Culprit seems to be the desktop effects: I noticed that switching worked
one way from the user who had desktop effects disabled. Once I disabled
the effects for both users, I can now switch back and forth between them
reliably.
