Yes, I found the way to save the changes, but I'm doing it in under my login - and while the panels change to black [there were blue and partly transparent], the fix works ONLY for ONE next session - then I get the desktop with no panels and no terminal via keyboard.... I'll try the launching of gnome-panel if it will do something when logged in as me.

Work once ONLY if reinstalled Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: While the computer is saying its a problem with gnome-panel, I keep re-installing gnome-session-fallback. It will work [in either flavor of fallback (no idea why there are now two!) ONE TIME - but the next time I get a screen with NO panels and NO keyboard shortcuts are recognized (so I can't even get a terminal). All I can do is hard shut-down of computer; restart into gnome or unity or some others (which I do NOT like to use!). I have done this MANY times now. It never stays 'done'. Am going back to my copy ov 12.04 until someone can tell me why or how to make one of the fallbacks (hopefully both) work every time I sign in to 14.04. Thank you. Anyone else having similar problems? The only other thing I can think of is that I upgraded from 12.04 in which fallback operated just fine and was stable.
