Ok, on a completely fresh install I can't get unity-2d to start (with exactly the same reports as mentioned above). So at least that means that the "after unity has been used" is a likely red herring. I have in the past had unity-2d start, but ::shrug::.
Some interesting things that might be relevant: 1) We're using the nvidia-current drivers. 2) This is a dual monitor setup, with TwinView enabled. (However, we get problems with single-monitor setups too.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993694 Title: unity-2d does not start if user has logged in on unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/993694/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
