Submitting problem report on Unity since seems easist to document. I downloaded the Ubuntu 14.10 daily build dated 8/29/14 and went through the install process without any problem. After completion of the install, doing the first boot of the system, and the login screen my desktop background is displayed with desktop ICONs. There is no Ubuntu banner at the top of the screen or any Unity launch bar on the left. My only option was to ctl-alt-f1 and build/save a bug report which I using to report under the working 14.04 system on this same desktop.
