After the latest updates this morning, the gnome desktop seemed a lot
more responsive and some of the tiny niggles such as dropdown menus
taking ages before they would work had gone.  Unity would not work at
all, and starting with the unity desktop gave a whole lot of things that
failed to start beginning with the wastebasket.  Clicking on re-try put
these as menuitems or icons in the gnome desktop.

I decided to re-install as a clean installation and go through the
upgrade/update process.  On first installing, Unity worked.  After the
updates had completed, unity would not start and I was left with the
gnome desktop with the error messages as above.  Attempts to start Unity
from the terminal give the attached output, and Unity works, but is
somewhat broken; ie no gnome menus, or only some.  Switching to the
gnome desktop as default now gives a workable system again.
