After fiddling with some settings in compizconfig-settings-manager, I get a corrupted display on login & crash back to the login screen within a few seconds. I have to use a terminal to kill compiz before I can continue login. This is despite that I did get it working using compiz --replace in the middle of a session.
On login I see the desktop, and my mouse. After ~1s (I assume now compiz is loading) the display goes mostly black, with outlines of windows about 1 pixel wide, outlines of the panels, outlines of any menus I open, and my mouse is mostly fine (rendered very poorly, and choppy movement, but recognizable). After a few seconds of this, crash back to login screen.
I've attached a .txt with output of:
*compiz --version
*X -version
*cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep intel_drv.so -C 2
*glxinfo
and my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
