We might include a setting to control this value, if requested, but for now the easier way to get this enabled at login time is:
sudo gedit /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/ubuntu.session Remove "compiz" from the RequiredComponents list
sudo gedit /usr/share/upstart/sessions/unity7.conf:
Add these lines after "export COMPIZ_CONFIG_PROFILE": env UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE="1" export UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE
Another option might be to just add `export UNITY_LOW_GFX_MODE="1"` to the ~/.profile file, but it didn't work here always.
