Title:
  upgrade  to Ubuntu 11.10 has lost previous wallpapaer and layout
  settings and will drive my wife nuts

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After unsuccessfully trying to get Java installed for use with Firefox
  - unsuccessful because the method is far too complicated to be done
  quickly - I checked for updates and found Ubuntu 11:10 waiting.  This
  has a significantly different screen layout by having the "toolbar"
  down the left, losing some of the links from the top toolbar, having
  no taskbar at the bottom of the screen, and making the previous
  wallpaper unobtainable.  I can't find how to restore previous
  appearance, layout, etc.  Open windows have only 3 buttons in top
  right corner WITH NO DISTINGUISHING INDICATION OF Minimise, Close
  Window, etc.  I know this is supposed to be bug reporting, but it is
  the first feedback option I could find.  Ubuntu 11:10 needs sorting to
  allow familiar features to be retained when a user has set up their
  computer for their convenience.
