-- Logged in from the command-line and ran "startx". The session started just fine, however there was no Gnome Panel loaded whatsoever.
-- Pressed F12 to launch Guake terminal and typed "unity --replace &" and hit enter. This dropped me immediately to the shell and I observed an error message regarding a segmentation fault pertaining to the nvidia-current driver (please see screen photos attached).
