In another bug report, which was attached to this one, I described the loss of functionality of a computer. That was a brand new laptop, and the loss was not a major problem, now it is. On the PC named ea-laptop, this evening I was using compiz-config(I think the name is) the last screen has preferences, that screen would not revert to the main screen no matter what I tried. Suddenly without my help the screen flashed a few times and copiz-config was gone AND SO WAS EVERYTHING ELSE, with the exception of the top panel with only "File Edit View Go Bookmarks and Help. I cannot bring the launcher out, nothing will respond. I have essentially lost my whole system, At this point I used ctrl +alt+t to get terminal and provide the second of the two Dependencies.txt files.

Th first of these two was generated on a desktop which has been running Oneiric since it was released. I turned this system on to see if I had installed Compiz-config and the system came up with everything gone also.

The problem to me has now become critical and should be investigated ASAP
