Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

After configuring compiz plugins, my system freezed and then on next access every time I start with unity display I don't see neither the vertical bar, neither the horizontal top one. My only choice is to start the desktop using old gnome system (Ubuntu classic mode).

seems like the 'Unity plugin' is not enabled on your system or are you reporting this bug from the Classic Ubuntu session. In either case start 'Ubuntu' session, when there is only the wallpaper visible, press ctrl+alt+f1 there type your username and password to login. then do the following

$ export DISPLAY=:0
$ unity --reset

then press ctrl+alt+f7/8/9 (one of them should have your wallpaper and should be starting unity, let us know if that helps.
