I tried turning off Desktop Effects, and it DID NOT resolve the issue, nor
did it switch to the 2D launcher session. At least everything on the screen
stayed the same. When I choose the 2D session from GDM, all fonts are
readable, but the icons are much bigger, and the toolbar is just the one
from the standard (non-netbook) desktop. Turning off Desktop Effects from
the 3D launcher did not exhibit any of those.
Also remember, the 3D launcher was working beautifully for me until the day
I submitted this ticket. - and it works from a live USB key.
So I don't think it's un-solvable.

New info,
I tried turning off Desktop Effects, and it DID NOT resolve the issue, nor
did it switch to the 2D launcher session. At least everything on the screen
stayed the same. When I choose the 2D session from GDM, all fonts are
readable, but the icons are much bigger, and the toolbar is just the one
from the standard (non-netbook) desktop. Turning off Desktop Effects from
the 3D launcher did not exhibit any of those.
Also remember, the 3D launcher was working beautifully for me until the day
I submitted this ticket. - and it works from a live USB key.
So I don't think it's un-solvable.
