Updated prev. version of Ubuntu 64bit, to 11.04 64bit. Have normal desktop with prev. icons, but cannot access tool bars etc.

Have just noticed computer locks up on screen saver.

Hi kiwi, I am no expert, but I don't think Unity has panels as in Gnome. I am assuming what you are calling tool bars are panels, ie the ones you click onto and you can add bits and pieces. I think with the home icon you hover your pointer over the top left bar and it will appear. If you want the Gnome desktop,from what I can understand, you can load the classic Gnome desktop by logging out and down the bottom of the screen you will find the classic gnome. You can also load it by clicking up the top right of the screen when you are logged in, the system management is up there. A lot of what I am telling you is from memory and bits and pieces I have read. I updated to Natty just after the release, but I didn't do a very good job. Too much beer!!! I reverted back to my old os but will give Natty another try later on. In regard to your screen lock, have you unlocked lock screen in screen saver? Greg

Am unable to access any files, programs unless they are on my desk top from previous version. Can't even access panels.
