Bug Description

I'm running unity & nux trunk, compiz & everything else from precise repos.

When I switch to a VT with Ctrl+Alt+F1 *and* when I try and restart unity by running "unity &", compiz/unity crashes.

I've attached a photo of the error I get that includes the GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY error, the gdb log (that includes the stack trace), and the unity log (which doesn't look very useful to me).

The offending code is GLDeviceFrameBufferObject.cpp:275:

      case GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED_EXT:
        nuxError("[GLFramebufferObject::IsValid] GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED_EXT");
        isOK = false;
        break;

Looks like nuxError triggers a debug break/abort which is a crash to the user. But this is an error we should recover from.

nuxError, stops the program if Nux has been compiled in debug mode with --enable-debug. Otherwise, nuxError does not halt the program.
I prevented nuxError from stoping the program on error in debug mode. This does not resolve the issue.
Also, going to VT F1, I get a black screen on my NVidia system. Going back to VT F7, Unity/Compiz crashes. This problem does not occure on system with an Intel GPU.

With Jay's branch, I no longer get the stack trace originally posted in this bug. Instead, I get this:

http://paste.ubuntu.com/1088762/

90% of the time when I try and start unity from a VT.
