I have just installed ubuntu 11.04 on my ACER 3810T.

Unity is showing only few launchers in the sidebar and the "Applications" launcher is not there. More, if I press Alt-F", not windows (lens) comes up.

Where should I troubleshoot this?

Thanks

The two launchers wEre not showing in the sidebar because the following packages were missing in the system: unity-place-files and unity-place-applications.

It was just a matter of installing them, login back and the launchers appered!

Can you open up a terminal session? If so try typing in:

unity --reset

This will reset Unity to its default settings and hopefully resolve the issue you're having.

  • I fixed this by comparing the installation with another pc. My notebook was missing unity-place-applications and unity-place-files packages.I don't know how this could happened during upgrade.
