[Bug 1389888] Re: unity not shown only desktop with new nvida 970 card

 

Thank you for your fast feedback.

I was not able to execute 
	dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
at tty7 because i was not able to open a shell and on tty1 i got the error "cannot autolaunch d-bus without x11 display".

So I did the work myself as good as i could on tty1.
	sudo rm -rf ~/.config/dconf/user
	sudo rm -rf ~/.cache/compizconfig-1
	sudo apt-get install --reinstall compiz-core compiz

After a reboot the unity desktop was working again.
Thank you guys.

I don't know if there is be a better and cleaner solution.

Bug description:
  Hi

  I have a new Nvidia 970 card.
  This card is supported starting nvidia-343, so I installed them using ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa .

  After a reboot I see the login screen, I'm able to login but the top-right menu and the unity bar on the left side is missing.
  But I'm able to see my mouse and on a right-click I get a pop-menu.

  What I've done so far:
  - reinstalled ubuntu-desktop unity compizconfig-settings-manager

  I'm added  my log files to help you.
  Can I do anything else to help you?

  I hope you can help me.
