@Stéphane: so, we have a tool which is call unity_support_test located at /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test. This is the tool deciding if we launch unity or compiz or not…
There are some cases where this tool can crash and it's under fix. You can run manually /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p to get the full output (basically, it needs): $ /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p Nux: --------------------------- Nux: Device pci id detection ...
