Can't open PDF's. Desktop layout changed.

[Ricardo Diamondo]

Hi, Hope you can help.

Problem started when trying to open a PDF document with Document Viewer as usual. But the viewer kept crashing. Tried other apps & other PDF's, they did the same.

Somehow, whilst trying to sort this PDF problem, I have changed my Desktop which now does not have the Bar on the Left with the Dash button etc. Now I just have "Applications" and "Places" on the top bar and no sign of Dash anywhere.

I want to go back to having the side-bar, and to be able to open PDF's again. Please.

I am running a
                      Levano-G575
   with 14.04 LTS
   OS type 32-bit
   Processor AMD C-50 Processor x 2
   Graphics VESA: WRESTLER

Thank you in anticipation....
Ricardo

I'm not convinced this is a bug, especially not a bug in ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu).

http://askubuntu.com/ is one good place to ask for help with using Ubuntu.

Thanks for checking it out. Will try askubuntu as you suggest. Sorry for wasting your time. Richard
