I'd like some help to fix another unity issue.
After last update, my system broke.
For example, when I execute a 'ls' command, the screen breaks and does not show anything. Sometimes, just the beggining is shown.
How can I fix it?
I don't want use another X, for now…
Thanks

Before removing Compiz you might wanto to try and reset it
1.Press Alt + ctrl + F1
2.Login using your username and password
3.Reset compiz by executing
gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz-1
4.Reset unity , by executing
unity --reset
5.Optionally you can reset launcher icons by executing unity
--reset-icons
6.Press Alt + ctrl + F7 to get back to login screen. However I recommend a restart by executing
sudo reboot
. Let us know if it worked.Cerdits to Web-E
To remove compiz and compiz packages type this in a terminal:
sudo apt-get purge compiz compiz-plugins-main-default libcompizconfig0
Warning: Removing compiz also removes the packages unity & ubuntu-desktop.
Warning: Removing libcompizconfig0 also removes ubuntu-tweak.
Thus you will lose the ability to log into the unity or unity-2d desktops.
