@Shelby: you have not upgraded to the latest version. Please do so by
issuing the following commands in a terminal:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Then if could post the result of $ ps auwx | grep unity and the file
~/.xsession-errors that would be fantastic.
Thanks.

Maybe that (re)setting the gconf keys can be included in the Unity
binary or session manager (where 'Unity 2D' is chosen) in some way?

@Maarten: the issue is that this setting of gconf keys is already
included in the installation process of unity-2d-default-settings. For
some reason it did not work for Adnane though.

Once again, it's broken. On first login, the launcher was there, but no
panel. On second login, there was no launcher, but the panel was there,
although the indicator-applets were missing.

started up normally, didn't fiddle with
When it happens that doesn't work open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T

after logging in it's possible the launcher is running but just not visible
(see bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705336

Can you run this command and paste the output once you get back into the

The launcher is now running from startup. Thanks for the help! I'm not

Hmm, I just restarted and this time unity-2d-launcher did not come up.
So the situation as before report #20.
Can you tell me how I can clean maybe my unity settings in a way that I can
test an as-new Unity-2D installation?

That's a bit too radical for me. Since I have a lot of other specific
settings for lots of applications which would take a lot of time to copy
back. Most easy would be to delete the relevant files in the
userprofile.

@Florian I upgraded to the latest version. now i have the Unity 2D but
the issue still exists it shows the classic session without desktop
drawing. also i run the unity-2d-panel from the command-line it runs
without any problem, but the gnome restarts itself automatically.

I was able to fix my problem by making a kind of clean unity 2d session:
system-startup applications-options- removed the check for
'automatically remember applications when logging out'
removed everything from ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session/
now unity 2d does start, and gnome-panel does
Maarten: thanks for the awesome solution. I will try to see if we can
push it to everybody easily via the packages.

It seems like one potential problem is that the gconf keys setup by
unity-2d-default-settings did not get set correctly during the upgrade
for some reason. The postinst of this package is supposed to trigger
updating of the gconf keys, so not sure why this wouldn't have worked.
Couple of things to
Another thought after reading back through the comments, you mike want
to first remove the saved session before modifying the gconf keys:
mv ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session ~/.config/gnome-sessino/saved-
session.bak
