Even if you get it sorted you will more than likely have an unstable desktop UI. Why did you install Gnome3 on a production system (ie. Not a test suite)? The pages showing how to do it CLEARLY state it will break your OS. If Gnome3 was suitable for Natty then it will more than likly have been updated. The differences in Gnome3 and Gnome2 are HUGE! The settings and such for your apps are all 100% geared around Gnome2 so changing it to something else will break stuff.
I'd just reinstall. If you want Gnome3 so very badly, just install Oneiric and you will have it. Gnome3 is default in Gnome Oneiric.

Off the top of my head, try:
sudo apt-get upgrade -f
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
If that works:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
