ubuntu 10.04 + does not show menu after load

I am having problems when i run ubuntu 10.04 on LIve CD or install. When it completely load i see only mouse pointer on screen and CD-rom icon . There are no menu items .

Where could be a problem? An older Ubuntu 6.06 runs without problems.

Hello!
Turn off the following virtual machine settings: "Enable 3D Acceleration" and "Enable 2D Video Acceleration".

hmmm aren't they settings in VirtualBox? I assume He is not using virtual box.

In fact i had this very problem when I updated one of my boxes from 8.04 to 10.04.

There was a command to restore the menu then I allowed it to update and it fixed it.
I'm trying to find the command....

try this :

I had to do it each time I restarted until I updated....hope that helps.
