I've have also found that the main menu locks up after a package install. Must be a bug.I run quite a few versions and derivatives of Ubuntu and they don't do that.
The menu at the bottom, as far as I can tell, is a file in your home directory called ".wbar". You can edit it, and add stuff, fairly straight forward, if you know a little linux or unix. Shortcuts on the desktop, you just drag them from the menu (left mouse button). Not sure about the wireless, I've done lots of work on wireless on Linux in the past, but recently it's just worked every time for me. What type of laptop is it and do you know what wireless card it uses ?
