I've just installed a new ubuntu 16.04 ,
fresh install clean , logged in the first and only thing i did is selecting the proprietary driver 361 for nvidia , rebooted the machine .
anfter rebooting i can login but unity isn't showing , i can still right click though and open terminal , tried many answers:

Found the solution (this time for real),
i decided to be an ubuntu expert , so i went to google and typed :
debug ubuntu
then it gave me the page Debug and i selected unity .
in some part i needed to do :
$ unity --advanced-debug

Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n])
[Answer yes (y)]
(gdb) run
[ and when compiz/unity crash, do...]
(gdb) bt full
[ then CTRL-D or re-run compiz to continue working ]
(gdb) run
after running this i noticed the error :
compiz (core) - Error: Plugin 'opengl' not loaded.
i searched for this error on google and it gave me this thread Unity missing? Can't see top or side panels , the answer here works .
