I've installed Ubuntu 14.04 and later installed Mate desktop environment. I did not like it and wanted to switch back to Ubuntu Unity. I removed Mate Desktop from the system also. But I have several issues.

  • Loading screen while booting shows Ubuntu-Mate background.
  • Login screen still the same as of Mate
  • 2 Network icons at top bar

enter image description here

  • Little slower than before to load the whole desktop after pressing putting password on login screen.

Please help me get back to original Ubuntu.

Edit

Followed the following link to install it.

http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/install-mate-desktop-ubuntu-14-04-lts

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/ppa
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/trusty-mate
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-mate-core ubuntu-mate-desktop

And then just switched back using the option in login page (choosing the desired desktop env). After I see loading pages are still Mate based, I tried to remove ..

sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-mate-core ubuntu-mate-desktop

still same login page and loading page, then tried changing display manager to lighdm

sudo apt-get install lightdm

and choosing the default as lightdm

and tried

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

Still no luck. :(

Sometimes if I lock my Ubuntu 11.04 screen, when I try to resume my work.. I see my PC hangs. The black screen does not go off. I can not even see the password prompt screen. I have to restart the PC. The same thing happens with my PC and my friends's PC.

My Sytem

  • Ubuntu 11.04 (natty)
  • Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz (GenuineIntel)
  • 3982 MiB (Memory)

Has anyone come across this problem?
