I am using the Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 and forced Unity on startup.

Everything works fine including glxgears, however I do not have any visible icons in launcher. I know this has been reported as a bug.

According to my logs it seems to be a g_dbus error. If the card was not blacklisted I believe D-bus would be finding the icons. I would like to know exactly what the issue is with this specific card.

  • `however I do not have any visible icons in launcher` << That, probably. When I force Unity to start (my card is blacklisted as well) everything simply works... Appart from visual effects stuttering and going **really** slow, and my graphic card overheating. – RobinJ Feb 23 '12 at 11:30
  • This question should instead be filed as a bug report, and [as such](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/1317/what-to-do-with-questions-that-describe-known-bugs/) is off-topic, thanks! [Instructions here](http://askubuntu.com/questions/5121/how-do-i-report-a-bug) + it is abandoned, so voting to close it off. Cheers! – Nitin Venkatesh Feb 26 '12 at 04:23
