Title:
  Unity doesn't show the top menu bar or launcher after upgrading from
  14.04 to 14.10

Status in Unity:
  New

Bug description:
  I just upgraded Ubuntu from 12.04 to 14.04 to 14.10. After the first
  update the system launched Unity and everything was fine (when the
  updater asked me about configuration of something I always clicked
  "Replace"). After the second update I could log in, but there was only
  the wallpaper and some icons displayed. There is no top menu bar or
  the Launcher. The only way for me to run an application is to press
  Ctrl+Alt+F1 and type "export:DISPLAY=:0" and then "chromium-browser"
  for example.  The applications are  missing the decorations and I
  can't use any keyboard shortcuts.
