This bug is affecting me as well, i've tried reinstalling Ubuntu
Notebook 3 times already.
Seems to be affecting other users also:

Doesn't look like it's the same bug as linked to above, at least not in
my case. Can also mention that the solution provided in the other post
(uninstalling compiz and compiz-core - i didn't even have them installed
in the first place) doesn't work for me. neither does running 'pkill
gnome-panels',
