Deleting all the hidden files and folders in the home directory was
overkill. Which specific hidden file/folders would have been more
targeted? I'd like to take note of this for future reference.

Title:
  Unity Broken Today - No Panels or Launcher After Logon

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I installed the Ubuntu 14.04 64bit desktop on this ASUS F75A a few
  weeks ago while it was still in beta.

  Today, upon logging into this machine, the Unity Dekstop was missing
  the top-panel and the launcher. I had to then press the power button
  for 5 seconds to turn off this laptop because crtl-alt-t would not
  bring up a terminal.

  In order to submit this bug, I've had to boot from the recently
  released live DVD.

  I reinstalled Ubuntu 14.04 again today, onto this machine, but it
  didn't fix the problem; as soon as I logged in for the first time
  there was no panels or launchers.

  Ironically, when booting from the Live DVD, the launchers and panels
  show up fine.

  The laptop ran great for weeks on the 14.04 beta, but now a fresh
  install produces a corrupted Unity Dekstop.
