11.04 - Messed up with Unity & Compiz



I was making some changes in CCSM and I activated "rotate cube" plugin which asked me for resolving some conflicts & disabled all of them but with 11.04 something related to Unity were also disabled. I tried to restore it to defaults and then it all got screwed up.




And now if I am using the new Unity login, I just end up with my desktop, stuff on desktop and a mouse cursor.



I am able to go to terminal (tty) Ctrl + Alt + F1 but I am not sure what I need to do to fix it. I want the settings to be what they were on a fresh install.



To restore Compiz to default settings, try typing this into the terminal you have open:



gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz-1


To reset Unity to it's default settings, type:




unity --reset
