I have 11.04 installed with gnome3, it was working perfectly.

However now I am getting a strange behavior.

When ubuntu starts up I have no desktop.

If I click the "Files" icon in the sidebar I get nothing happening (no file browser).

However once I do a search for anything that shows up under "Places" Then the file browser opens and my desktop starts showing.

What could be causing this?

This should probably be a bug report, see: askubuntu.com/questions/37600/… – Jorge Castro May 18 '11 at 21:24
