The dpkg log

I use the ppa https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa on Ubuntu Natty.

Since the recent update from 7.12 to 8, when I log in the desktop icons flickers while compiz and unity never starts.
I have a dell E6400 with an nvidia card (VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98M [Quadro NVS 160M] (rev a1)) using Nouveau drivers.

Please tell me what information I can provide.

7.12 & 8 are not Xorg version numbers - dpkg log implies this was a Mesa
upgrade so moving there.

Is this still an issue after recent updates to mesa? It looks like a transient problem that's a few months old and is most likely already resolved.

Because I purged Nouveau drivers I cannot answer your question.
