I am using the Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 and forced Unity on startup.

Everything works fine including glxgears, however I do not have any visible icons in launcher. I know this has been reported as a bug.

According to my logs it seems to be a g_dbus error. If the card was not blacklisted I believe D-bus would be finding the icons. I would like to know exactly what the issue is with this specific card.

This question should instead be filed as a bug report, and as such is off-topic, thanks! Instructions here + it is abandoned, so voting to close it off. Cheers! – nitstorm Feb 26 at 4:23
