Title:
  If the machine halts, Unity fails to start on reboot

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  My machine is having trouble with the current kernel and often halts.
  On restarting the machine, the desktop fails to show.  If I turn the
  machine off and on again after that Unity returns.

  The machine goes through the following steps:
   * Grub
   * Ubuntu boot time splash screen
   * Mouse pointer appears and works
   * Startup sound plays
   * Machine stays on the splash screen

  On the second boot the pointer changes from a pointer to the spinning
  wait pointer, then the desktop shows.

  I have auto login turned on.  This is with 3.8.6-0.
