Lost desktop display but not taskbars
Running Ubuntu 8.04 and last time I started the computer I did not have the normal desktop. Both top and bottom taskbars appeared but nothing in the center panel.
The taskbars work normally but the background has disappeared and no icons appear on it. I just have a blank panel.
Right clicking in the center panel does nothing.
I tried restarting and repairing the system but that did not work.
I also tried re-installing the gnome desktop and that did not fix the problem. I still cannot see my normal desktop.
Can anyone give me any suggestions as to how to restore my desktop to "normal"
Thanks
