ability to clear document history within the applications. This is a

for me the gui got messed through a serious of distro updates. what was
missing was the ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings package. I
installed that one, restored the applets in the top-panel and set the
dust theme. now everything is fine again.
just wanted to report that my problem is
Warning: I am certainly not an expert in this topic and my advice should
not be taken as definitive in this matter...
It is my understanding that changes in Gnome prevents the ability for
live-switching that we have come to expect. Furthermore, it is looking

i have the same problem here. my question is: is there also a way to
manually get back to the UNR desktop? just like erasing the hidden gnome
folders but the other way ´round?

WG,
I don't know why my installation went so horribly wrong ... :-(
I followed your suggestion, and I don't see any difference. I'll try
the new defaults for a while to see if that fixed any of the other
myriad of problems that came up.
To get any desktop at all, I had to use
gconftool-2
Swajime, I accidentally left out a directory. In addition to .gnome/ and
.gnome2/, you also want to do the same with .gconf/
That should reset your desktop.

Swajime, I don't know if this will get back the UNR desktop back, but you can
get the default desktop by renaming the directories .gnome and .gnome2 as
.gnome_old and .gnome2_old
Then, log back into your desktop, and gnome will use the built-in defaults to
make the .gnome and .gnome2
Just to be clear ... there are no desktop icons or UNR menu ... just a
brown screen with the bar on top. There are no menus available in the
bar other than the shutdown and switch user menus.
Any help would be much appreciated :-)

Ok ... I've installed karmic on a mini-9 and installed several applications
with aptitude ... Somewhere in the mix, I completely lost the desktop ! :-(
All I have is the bar across the top with the date and the username.
Right-clicking on the background does nothing.

I am happy with the UNR desktop for most things. I have two main
objections with UNR:
1) No ability to clear document history within the applications. This is
a function of the Gnome Places menu which isn't available in UNR.
2) Some applications (disk utility palimpsest, system test utility, and
Anton32828, I agree with you about the Clear Documents feature. It
would be nice to be able to better handle that.
As for the problem with windows that are too big, there is a non-obvious
feature that can help. If you hold down Alt, then you can click and
drag anywhere in a window to move it!

I am new to bug reporting. Thanks for the feedback. As the originator of

not to use the UNR interface, you may be better off just installing the

I can confirm the issue. It is the same on my freshly installed Ubuntu

used it all the time. If it wasn't for the switch desktop mode, I

This bug is a very important regression in Karmic and there is also
little information about desktop-switcher dropping from Karmic. I lost

Personally, I had problems with Desktop Switcher in UNR in 9.04. When I
tried out 9.10, I still had some trouble with it. I suspect that they
finally removed the package?
Can anyone confirm that? Maybe someone can suggest a safe way to get
the regular GNOME desktop?

Ah, found it. Report #443298 talks about them removing the package
because of stability issues. 10.04 will come with the ability to choose
a UNR or regular session at the login screen as opposed to doing the
switch live.
In the meantime, however, you still need a way to go to the regular
