I've noticed the ubuntu panels can disappear and not reappear after I switch between single window and unity modes. They don't reappear with full screen mode either. If I "show taskbar in unity" the panels persist. across modes.

For the VMware Fusion team list...

You're sure Tools are up to date and running (e.g. if you took a kernel update, you reconfigured Tools)? By panels, do you mean the top and bottom system bars?

And the kernel is 2.6.31-14-generic, which is the released version of 9.10.

So are we talking about 9.10 (Karmic Koala) or 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon)?

Sounds like karmic koala, that's the kernel level on my copy of 9.10. I get my menu bar and bottom panel back switching from Unity and back. I added a top panel below the menu bar and it redraws exiting Unity.
