Like every single update on Ubuntu system,
my graphical system is completely broken after updating to version 11.10

As shown in the image, the date is in the middle of the panel,
There are many icons missing (network connection icon, skype)
There's no right click menu when I try to right click on the panel
and many programs don't have their menus (file,edit,view... those things).

How do I fix this?
I have gnome-panel, I don't want Unity and I'd rather install windows 95
before I switch to it.
