That's because Unity in Ubuntu 11.04 is based on Gnome 2, not on Gnome 3. When you installed Gnome3, you "lost" Unity together with the Classic Gnome Ubuntu, leaving;the OS with no shell. But that has changed in 11.10: Unity is ported to Gnome 3. So you will have to install Gnome Shell or the version of Unity currently used in 11.10 alphas by command line.
