After the latest updates this morning, the gnome desktop seemed a lot
more responsive and some of the tiny niggles such as dropdown menus
taking ages before they would work had gone. Unity would not work at
all, and starting with the unity desktop gave a whole lot of things that
failed to start
Further to the above: a workaround seems to be re-installing compiz.
This gives me a fully working Gnome desktop. If I then re-enable the
Ubuntu Desktop and re-boot, I am back to nothing more than a background
and active mouse cursor. The only way to get into the 11.04
installation is to boot
I tried uninstalling and the reinstalling Ubuntu desktop. This left me
with an almost unusable desktop. The Gnome desktop appeared, but the
menus in the top panel did nothing when clicked. I had a terminal on
the desktop, so I tried killing compiz. This brought the menus back to
life again.
I think this may be the bug that I'm seeing. On installing 64 bit 11.04
from the liveCD, Unity worked. After allowing the updates to complete
and re-booting, all I got was the background and an active mouse cursor.
This is a single monitor installation, so I suspect the multihead
configuration
I've attached a file with the output if I attempt to start Unity from
the terminal, and the apport log for bug reporting.
** Attachment added: Output from terminal when trying to start Unity.
** Attachment added: I've attached the output from apport.
