That worked for me. After resetting, Unity worked the way it should, but the left menus on the top panel still do not show until the mouse cursor is in the top panel. But now they work. > Whilst installing alpha1 release and trying to do updates now may be > problematic, I'd be a little surprised if using a daily build images > would have the same problem. Try using a daily build image without > doing any updates The daily build is something I didn't know about. Must have missed it somewhere along the line. Last week, I bought a 160 GiB hard drive on e-bay for £10 and it came this morning. I tested it by installing the daily build. Operation is exactly the same as it was with the alpha 1 with updates, but at least now I can use Unity after a reset. I'll add my name and details and a bug report to #693073. I already put an ubuntu-bug unity report up with my last report. I'll do another and report. Thanks for that. Regards, Barry. -- What do you see when you use your Computer?
