When I load Ubuntu 12.04, it logs in with slight flickering, and proceeds to the desktop. With no Unity. Or Icons. I can right-click but that's all.
This started since I installed the restricted driver for my Nvidia card.
When something used to work, and stopped working, it is known as a regression. Regressions are usually caused by a hardware or software change that didn't agree with Ubuntu. In your case, if you have not tried it already, uninstall the Nvidia driver. If it is so broken that you can't do that, you may have to boot from the Live CD to do it. Also, by "With no unity. Or icons", do you mean it boots into GNOME, or you just see the desktop background and nothing else? Also, other info, such as the driver version, graphics card model, and other specs could be useful. Remember, on AskUbuntu, there is no such thing as too much information. Anyways, I hope this helps, and happy hacking!
