I agree about UNITY-- I find gnome to be a much better interface, but I
wanted to try it before I decide, and discovered the menu bug, which
affects other programs, not only Lyx.

I have discovered that the new Ubuntu 11.04 GUI Unity (or perhaps
its appmenu) kills the menus on Lyx 2.0 (and several other
programs, such as VLC), possibly because of a qt4 incompatibility.
The bug has been known for almost a year. Does anyone have a way
of getting around it, short of using gnome instead of Unity?
Thanks,

This response is non-responsive to your question, but...
Unity! Slowly I turn, step by step, inch by inch!
Never has a worse user interface been conceived or deployed. It even
beats out Windows 7 for lameness.
I have no idea how to fix Unity induced problems in any app, sorry.
I went back to classic when upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04. If a future
Ubuntu ever forces me to go Unity, I'll move away from Ubuntu.
