I have just upgraded a 32-bit system from 13.10 to 14.04. Several things cause me to get a black screen (top indicator area still showing). I can usually recover by waiting and clicking randomly on the black screen:
1. If I move my cursor to the left side to expose the Unity launcher, I get a black screen.
2. If I try to invoke the global menu for an application like Firefox or Terminal that uses it, I get a black screen and the global menu is inoperative (also, I thought there wasn't supposed to be a global menu in this release, but there seems to be -- but it doesn't work).
3. If I try to launch System Settings, I again get the black screen.
Any help would be much appreciated.
