Then I updated to 3.8.1-1ubuntu1 yesterday, and today when I login nothing appears. The icons and panel doesn't appear. Sot neither gnome-panel or nautilus gets loaded. It seems nothing gets loaded. I still see the Ubuntu version superimposed on the background. Nothing loads up. The desktop is completely unusable. Reproducible every time. This happens both on Metacity and Compiz sessions. This happens both on my user account and the guest account.
