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.
