Hello

This is my second day with ubuntu 11.04. First impression was great but now I have a problem.
I tried to change the desktop switcher to rotate cube and I had installed compiz fusion. So I went to compiz setting, I looked for rotate cube and I ticked it. When I did this a couple of windows asking about enableing and disableing poped up, and unfortunatley I clicked them without reading. I assumed they were just interface related.

Know when I Restarted my laptop I don't have any main menu bar, or tool bar at the top of the desktop nor application icons on my left.

its really hactic 4 me Nw..

Thank you

You will need to reset compiz and unity settings. Switch to a text terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1. Login there, and issue the following commands.


gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz-1
unity --reset

You better reboot now


sudo reboot now

and Unity should now launch properly when the system is ready again.
