comment How can I get a messaging menu indicator with unread count of my new Gmail emails?
OK - icon question answered as well. I had to change the indicator-messages-new.png icon in /usr/share/icons under my theme, under status/22. I must still wait 19 hours to award a bounty. :D

I had tried Unity Mail before this but didn't realize that it was actually changing the envelope color - to a light gray, not blue as I expected. But your answer is right, I should have noticed. I don't suppose you know where I could change that color? Popper did not seem to work at all, it doesn't check or notify even.

comment How do I play movies on Google Play?
Thanks a lot, this also helped with Chrome. Instead of removing those specific folders, I cleared the ~/.adobe/Flash_Player folder and the movie started playing.

comment How to get a proxy for DBus object that is not well known?
Thanks, interesting read. I gave up on it as well and moved to a different approach, but if I revisit this area it will be a good point to start experimenting.

comment Multiple networks connected.Which is considered?
There is a way to do it, it's referred to as NIC Bonding (I think it has many other synonyms). I've never done it but there's a help page on the Ubuntu Help Wiki: help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBonding

comment Stuck at login screen
At the login screen, press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and log in. Then have a look at the LightDM logs, located at /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log and /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log

Have you tried pinging the domains? Have you tried pinging Google DNS' IP address? When you say 'not loading', what message are you getting in the browser?
