(Get the code!)
You can try to login choosing a "Failsafe Terminal" session in the login window (before it counts down). You will have to enter "ubuntu" as user name and empty password in this case IIRC. This will give you a shell without gnome and compiz and you can now uninstall compiz for instance. And copy the old log from Xorg.0.log.old corresponding to the previous, broken session.
You can also edit xorg.conf here and press ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X.
The problem can be that glxinfo is crashing. Please try that also in the failsafe session.
