Title:
  10.04.3 (x64): After first update, GNOME taskbar inop

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi All,

  I believe this is related to GNOME desktop.

  I recently needed to reinstall Ubuntu 10 on a x64 laptop. Installation
  went well, and I rebooted when prompted.

  After the reboot, I ran Update Manager and noticed something failed in
  the terminal window. As it zipped by, it looked similar to
  ?????????????-????????????????-gnome-... (it was full of question
  marks with gnome tacked on). Kernel was updated so I needed another
  reboot.

  Upon rebooting and logging in, there was another error about a missing
  desktop component, and I was asked if I wanted to delete its entry.
  Sadly, I chose to delete the missing component entry without taking
  note of what it was.

  At this point, I can't find a record of the problem in the logs )dpkg
  or jockey) via the Log Viewer, so I'm having problems with locating
  the component again (damn, why did I not write it down!!!). While
  programs will launch, they do not minimize to the desktop's taskbar.
  The only way to get to them is through ALT-TAB.

  This has the smell of a Unity cross-contaminated desktop (why is Unity
  being installed on desktops and servers or 11.x? why not limit Unity
  to what its designed for - netbooks and touch pads?).

  Any help in getting a fully function desktop back would be
  appreciated. I'll take a fixed package that I can reinstall since I
  don't believe its an isolated incident.
