** Description changed:

- When I log into a desktop session in Ubuntu (both the Live CD and a
- fresh install), the top panel and launcher both seem to completely fail
- to load.
+ When I log into a desktop session in Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10 (both the
+ Live CD and a fresh install), the top panel and launcher both seem to
+ completely fail to load.
  
  When viewing console output via one of the virtual terminals, I can see
  that compiz is failing to load the OpenGL plugin.
  
  compiz (core) - Error: Plugin 'opengl' not loaded.
  
  Right-clicking on the wallpaper still brings up the right-click menu as
  expected, but performance is extremely slow.
  
  I am using an Intel i865 IGP (82865G), which supports the OpenGL 1.3
  standard. This appears to be where the bug lies.
  
  unity_support_test gives an incorrect report of the IGP, stating that it
- supports OpenGL 1.4. This was not the case with Ubuntu 12.04, the last
- release I tried on this computer.
+ supports OpenGL 1.4. This was not the case with Ubuntu 12.10, the last
+ Ubuntu release where Unity worked on this computer.
  
- Booting into a 12.04 Live CD and running unity_support_test also yields
- the correct test result (GL version is 1.4+: no)
+ Ubuntu 12.10's unity_support_test yields the correct test result (GL
+ version is 1.4+: no), while 13.04 and 13.10's yields an incorrect test
+ result (GL version is 1.4+: yes).
  
  Could potentially be an issue with the version of mesa included with
- 13.10 Saucy.
+ 13.04 and 13.10.
  
- Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu 13.04~13.10 i386
+ Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu 13.04, 13.10 i386
  What is expected to happen: Unity loads, unity_support_test returns "GL 
version is 1.4+: no"
  What happened instead: Unity does not load, compiz fails to load opengl 
plugin, unity_support_test returns "GL version is 1.4: yes"
  
  IGP/GPU: Intel Extreme Graphics 2 82865G (i865 chipset)
