Bug Description

Binary package hint: gconf

Running x86_64 livecd (daily build - 21 March 2011) installed to USB drive. If I open the "Applications" menu from the Unity dockbar, and open the dropdown to change from "All Applications" to any other category, the dropdown list does not function. It opens, and I can see the choices, but I cannot select any of them. If the mouse passes over a choice that is "overlapping" one of the icons in the main part of the window, that icon becomes active, as though the menu does not exist.

I have not changed any settings or upgraded any packages yet (apart from installing the Broadcom STA drivers for my wireless card). My machine is an Acer 7551G with a Radeon HD 5650. Please let me know if you need any further information about my system.
