    My desktop startup icons // applications list not displaying?

    Hello,
    I was testing with "Compiz rotate cube" in my Ubuntu machine. Changed some settings by disabling "desktop cube". Something had changed in the mean time.

    Now i could able to login. Only blank desktop wall paper i could able to see. No applications list, startup icons displaying.

    If i press Ctrl + Alt + F = Folder view is displaying, i could able to view my files.

    If i press Ctrl + Alt + F1 = Could able to go to Terminal window and able to do all sort of commands.

    Could you pls suggest anyone to revert to my original settings so that i will getback my icons / applications list in my desktop.

    Thanks

    If you are running Natty 11.04 with Unity, please see this troubleshooting guide:

    Hi, after you reset unity as the post above this described by giving you a link, you can install the cube and effects using this guide that has pictures so it is easy to use.
