unity icons disappear
After upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10, unity started to have an abnormal behaviour.
A few seconds after login, the left icon bar, the top menu bar, and the window decorations, disappear.
This happens in two stages: there is first a blink, and a couple seconds later the stuff disappears.
Switching to a console and typing unity --reset-icons restores unity for the whole session despite the a few suspect messages like:
compiz (core) - Info: Loading plugin: opengl
compiz (core) - Info: Unity **is** fully supported by your hardware.
compiz (core) - Info: Unity **is not** supported by your hardware. Enabling software rendering instead (slow).
compiz (core) - Info: Starting plugin: opengl
or
compiz (opengl) - Error: FBO is incomplete: GL::FRAMEBUFFER
I've got a nvidia graphics card whose drivers come from package nvidia-current and glxinfo shows direct rendering is active, also texture compression is deactivated in compiz.
How to fix this behaviour of unity?
