After the crash i reported a few minutes ago (enabling dektop cube) i had to restart.
After restart: Nothing, but really nothing is here no more. No launcher, no panel, no desktop. Ctrl-Alt-T doesn't work so i made a link for a terminal on the desktop. In the terminal i wrote:
unity --reset.
This bug occoured while in terminal the following was shown (i write it, where it crashed):
