Same problem here. I've tried repeatedly to switch to 64bit Ubuntu.
Since 9.4 (or maybe even 8.10, I'm not really sure), every new stable
release i tried switching and found this same issue. An issue that not
only doesn't present itself with the corresponding 32 bit version but
also doesn't happen with any Windows OS i had/have on the same machine.

I've googled for a solution and apparently there isn't one. Considering
it's been here for at least a year and a half and Ubuntu takes all this
pride in being user friendly, well supported, easy to learn and all that
stuff, i think it's absolutely ridiculous.

How about we stop arbitrarily changing the look every two releases until
we have EVERYTHING in working order?

What is this, Microsoft? Changes in the GUI justify a shoddy product?
Wasting time and resources on forced changes that nobody cares about,
like the indicator applet or the buttons on the left side (which took me
all of three minutes to correct by hand) while letting a huge bug like
this go unnoticed for more than a year and at least three stable
distros, one of which a LTS?

If Ubuntu is to be taken seriously it shouldn't have this kind of
problem, especially in this day and age where USB drives can store
terabytes of data and 64bit is becoming the standard for CPUs. I have
very cumbersome data to backup and transfer and, to be able to, i have
to sacrifice my entire system's performance by installing the 32 bit
version.

Congratulations, apparently Microsoft has outdone at least one Linux
distribution on something.
