Public bug reported:

My computers are set up with four workspaces. In left top I have
Firefox, in right top VirtualBox, in left bottom Calc and in right
bottom is Thunderbird.  To move from one workspace to another I just
click the appropriate icon in the launcher.  This works flawlessly on
all desktops.  However on the laptop it does not.  I have to click on
the workspace icon in the launcher to move to another workspace.
Clicking an icon does nothing.

Now I was asked to provice what I did to cause this, step by step,
unfortunately I have no idea what either happened in Unity or what I
might have done to cause this.

I am reasonably sure it was that way when as a result of the "no panel no launcher" problem as corrected in bug # 1319146  
 I entered the indicated command which gave me back the Unity screen that was missing at that time.

Please provide me with any command required to get to the bottom of
this,  I will do anything I can to correct this bug.

I may add, that it does not in any other way show any problems.  I can
do any work on the laptop, except show off Ubuntu Linux to others who
may be interested in switching from Windows.
