After a power failure I'm unable to use my computer. Boots just fine and logs in all perfect, but the desktop environment does not load. No bar, no panel. Alt+F2, Ctrl+Alt+T, Ctrl+Alt+Del, none of this commands work. I have seen countless posts about installing ccsm and resetting unity, but HOW do I get there? I can't open terminal, internet, or anything that will allow me to reset or re install unity or gnome.
The guest session doesn't work as well, so there goes all my hopes...

Please help!

Nada, but I found Ctrl+Alt+F7. Now it froze when I gave the reboot command. :(

Fixed it!
Ctrl+Alt+F7, will bring up a full screen terminal, and ask you to log in, after that i realized that unity was uninstalled :confused: any way, just installed and rebooted, it did hang there for a while, but after a hard shutdown, everything is back in order.
