Same issue here -- have had this happen to me 4 times in the last 6 months. First two times I thought it was me and reformatted computer - and reinstalled from scratch. (Thank God I run backups!)
Last month I had my son (Unix guy in the next state over) help me via phone -- and were able to restore from simply running the commands to update, then install, reinstall desktop -- then install unity -- worked fine I kept the steps just in case... then it happened again - I logged into my pc and was working fine on Tuesday -- didn't log in on Wednesday till the evening - at which time the computer had gone to sleep - when I tried to login my unity and menu's were gone... I checked all the recommended steps via the ask.ubuntu site to no avail... I'm still not getting my unity or menu I am able to bring up a gui with my directory structure, so I went into usr/share/applications and found that I could launch applications from that - therefore I'm able to access a browser and get to this site. Wondering when this issue is gonna get fixed -- and why does this site say it' only affects 9 users??? That's crap - I cannot be only 1 of 9.... other people must not be logging in the issue... Can I get some help here? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212987 Title: Unity not starting after boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1212987/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
