well, judging fact launcher items aren't 'folding' when extend allocated space, aren't running regular unity, unity 2d, whether or not intended; settings in ccsm don't apply! can check session running with:

code:

echo $desktop_session

extending further down unity 2d road, judging of launcher items, using oneiric 11.10, , in that, if want launcher show, additionally setting "hide-mode", need enable key "use-strut"; , seems latter not enabled in case, enable it, run:

code:

gsettings set com.canonical.unity2d.launcher use-strut true

alternatively, can, of course, set "hide-mode" either auto-hide, "1"; or dodge windows, "2":

code:

gsettings set com.canonical.unity2d.launcher hide-mode 2

you can use gui tool toggle settings more conveniently, plus others:

getting regular unity run, however, can check below command if it's supported, , check "additional drivers" possible better fitting video drivers.

code:

/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p

for more this, output of check , additional info reg. current graphics setup needed.

regards.
