Have you also seen the desktop as here
Then here is the solution...........
You just need to turn the Unity plugin back on. The problem is this is a pain in the bottom because you've now got no graphical method to do this. So:
- Try to open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T.
This may not work but you can try right clicking on the desktop and selecting "Open terminal here." Otherwise, you may need to change to a "hard" terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 and log in. - Install
compizconfig-settings-manager
by runningsudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
- Then run it with this:
DISPLAY=:0 ccsm &
The first part tells the terminal which display you want it to load on (otherwise it won't have a clue). - If you switched to a TTY in step 1, switch back to the graphical server by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7 (or Ctrl+Alt+F8 sometimes).
There there should be a CompizConfig Settings Manager waiting for you. - Find the Unity plugin. Enable it (detailed instructions just below). You will be asked "Ubuntu Unity Plugin requires the plugin OpenGL. Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin / Enable OpenGL"
- 1) To enable the Unity Plugin: Click "Desktop" (left side) --> Ubuntu Unity Plugin. You can also type "unity plugin" into the "Filter" search box. Screenshot:
- From here, click the checkbox for "Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin":
- 2) To enable OpenGL: click "General" (left side) --> then check the box for "OpenGL", as shown below. You can also type "opengl" into the "Filter" search box to bring it up.
- Everything should spring into life but if it doesn't, you might have to restart. You can do that by going back to the terminal and running
sudo reboot
.
Thanks.........................
