After doing the xorg-edgers upgrade, I can't log into unity but I can access gnome 3. Any reasons why. The performance boost is amazing but I don't want to go back to the old drivers.

unity 2d works. compiz crashes and the following error is left in dmesg

[  530.302141] compiz[3247] general protection ip:7f038283bd30 sp:7fff81df2eb8 error:0 in libutouch-geis.so.1.2.0[7f0382831000+17000]

Looks like there are some problems in xorg-edgers, this is the one I hit:

To get back to something more stable:

sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers

Afterwards, restart X:

sudo service lightdm restart

Does Unity 2D work? If yes, install compiz-config:

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

open it and look if the plugin unity is checked. If not, check it, restart your computer and unity 3d works.
