You can try without creating user. Use guest account to login. It is important as we need understand if your problem is caused by your customizations/settings.
There is no need for save button. If you changed type to none is dconf- editor then settings sshould be saved automatically. You wrote that you have more then 4 panels. Did you changed that setting for all panels? Have you tried to login in session after changing background to none? When you try to launch gnome-panel do this: 1) Open gnome-terminal (/usr/bin/gnome-terminal) not gnome-panel 2) Then type in this command: gnome-panel --replace & You may need to do it multiple times as --replace command does not work like it should. Running gnome-panel from terminal will allow you to see error/warning messages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380095 Title: Gnome Fallback[s] don't work in 14.04.
