Hi Alan. Thanks for your quick response. The launcher hasn't changed. The dash appears as normal, but shows only documents. Clicking the 'apps' icon at the bottom of the dash tells me that there is nothing that matches the search (for all applications). I said "This happened immediately after I'd tried to 'de-google' the system as far as I was able". I had removed all of the google integration settings from the system settings -> online accounts with the exception of contacts. It may have been co-incidental, but immediately after that, the problem first occurred.

the problem does seem to have occurred in 15.04, but as I say, the workaround for that no longer works. I do have ccsm installed, but there doesn't seem to be anything I can do to the Unity plugin that looks promising.

Otherwise, it's nice to be back with Ubuntu after a few months mainly on Mint because of Wine being broken from 14.10 through to 15.04. Once the fix reached 15.10, Mint is only there as an emergency backup.

Kind regards,  Barry.
