I have quite a story with this bug. Immediately after upgrading from 10.04 I had a problem with Nautilus crashing and I thought it was related with the video drivers (it wasn't as I discovered later). So I used the hardware drivers tool to update the video drivers, but the new drivers were kind of buggy. So I deactivated them and this last move made the empty-desktop-and-nautilus-menu-bar bug appear. So my choice now is to either use the buggy drivers or face the bug and I can't find a way to go back to where I was before all this :-/.
If I can help looking somewhere in my system I'll be glad to. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/847037 Title: Unity in 11.10 does not start correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/847037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
