  • Package gnome-icon-theme-full is not available, but is referred to by another package.

That screenshot looks to me as if you're missing some icons- all the application icons appear to be there, but the icons representing categories of applications, as well as the actions to log out/shut down/etc, are not present. Perhaps Cinnamon by default selects an icon set that isn't present on Ubuntu? Try changing the icon theme in System Tools > System Settings > Themes to something like Ubuntu-Mono-Dark.

open a ternimal window and enter:

gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true
