Well, to delete “metacity.desktop” file only, solved the problem for Gnome classic, but when I connect with Unity, no dashboard and no launcher. I had to delete also “gnome-*.desktop” and “compiz.desktop” to find both Gnome and Unity functional. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877735 Title: gnome-panel mix with unity after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/877735/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, Today, I think after running “unity –replace”, I have the same trouble as describe by Raphael Camus. In my case, it was not even necessary to delete the ~/.local/share/applications folder, deleting the metacity.desktop file was sufficient.

Thanks, that is useful information. And yes, it would still be helpful for you to run "apport-collect 877735". In addition, can you attach an archive of your ~/.local/share/applications folder (the version with which the problem does occur)?

[Bug 877735] Re: gnome-panel mix with unity after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10
Hi, 1-I confirm the bug still exist, but it may be only a configuration issue on my side. 2-After several tries, I have isolated the config folder that is causing the problem: ~/.local/share/applications . Means that if I put back all my config files, I get the bug back. If then I delete that specific folder, the problem disapears (after logout/login). I can see that on this specific folder I have some .desktop files. Note that I have re-arranged alacarte menu entries for that user prior upgrade. Other users on the same box, and another user on another box for which I did not rearange alacarte do not have the issue. 3-I have upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 (and not from 10.04). Sorry for the confusion. 4-After my inputs, do you still need me to run "apport-collect 877735" ? If so, I'll do that tomorrow.

@Raphael Camus Also, you indicated that you upgraded from Ubuntu 10.04 to Ubuntu 11.10. But a direct upgrade from 10.04 to 11.10 is not supported.

[Bug 877735] Re: gnome-panel mix with unity after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10
The central (and possibly only) element of this bug as it is described by Raphael Camus is the absence of window borders--windows cannot be resized, moved, or maximized/minimized. That indicates that the problem is with the window manager. The problem occurs in GNOME Classic, which uses metacity as its window manager, and it does not occur in 3D Unity, which uses compiz as its window manager. So this is a bug in metacity. If an affected system has the same problem in Unity 2D, which also uses metacity, and does not have the problem in GNOME (not GNOME Classic, but GNOME, installable via the package called gnome-shell), which also uses compiz, that would provide further confirmation. Valezan's problem description sounds completely different from this. Therefore, I am assuming it is a different problem. So in addition to changing the affected package from gnome-panel to metacity, I am also setting this bug back from Confirmed to New. @Valezan, if you believe you really are experiencing this bug, please explain. @Raphael Camus, if you are sure this bug should have Confirmed status, then please feel free to set it back to Confirmed, but please explain in detail why you think it should have that status. ** Package changed: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) => metacity (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => New ** Tags added: oneiric -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877735 Title: gnome-panel mix with unity after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/877735/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If this can help you Raphael, here are some tests I did and didn't work: 1. Remove (from another root session) files “.Gnome”, “.Gnome2”, “.Gconf”, “.Gconfd”, “.Metacity” from my home: not enough, the problem persists. 2. In command line, execute: sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get remove unity sudo apt-get remove compiz sudo apt-get remove metacity sudo apt-get install compiz sudo compiz --replace sudo apt-get install metacity sudo apt-get install unity sudo unity & Also not sufficient either... I continue to follow this bug because it affects another session on my computer and I would prefer deleted some files / folders rather than, as I did yesterday, all my configuration settings.
