I converted two systems that had this problem to an Ubuntu 10.04 derivative, Linux Mint 9, and both systems work perfectly. This could provide a clue to the source of the problem, and could provide an emergency solution to people like Don who are in a tough situation and must have a working Ubuntu-like system immediately. BTW, the main menu in Linux Mint would probably feel very familiar to Windows users. It's a very pleasant system (and of course steals shamelessly from all of the work done in creating Ubuntu). It does not come with Ubuntu One or the Ubuntu Music Store plugin pre-installed.
