Bug Description
Ubuntu Desktop Next fails to start. I just get a black screen and mouse pointer. So unity-system-
unity8.log:
~~~

I've also verified mir_proving_server with mir_demo_client_* runs fine in another VT.

Hmm, actually this has only been reported on i945 systems so far (me and another person in: /bugs.launchpad .net/mir/ +bug/1275398/ comments/ 20

My Haswell desktop works fine with the same image. Maybe we're missing something in our relatively recent mesa patches to support i945?...
