IN case anyone is tracking this bug -- I wasn't able to use Unity in 14.04 LTS at all with this card because there's no longer a 2D fallback. I was tired of getting messages warning about losing hardware support for the 12.04 kernels.

SO I finally worked around the problem by removing the ATI RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] video card and put in another cheapo one that didn't have this problem (it's an [AMD/ATI] RV620 LE [Radeon HD 3450]).

I still have the video card with the bug but am no longer using it. I believe the offending card came with the Dell as an OEM installation, but it's generic.
