At the moment even I'm using Natty version of Ubuntu, my virtualbox machine auto change the UI of startmenu that I would find the searchbox any more.



I'm looking for way to search & execute applications quickly like I do in Windows 7 - rather than looking for it by nake-eye with the classic menu



Please help if you know how. Thank you.

Try to install Unity 2D:





It's similar to Unity but built on Qt and doesn't need compiz to run. So, you will never miss it.



Another way to fix things is to figure out what happened to 3D-support in your Virtual Box. Seems like it turned off and that's why you got GNOME2 desktop as fallback.



BTW, don't install Gnome Shell if you not sure what are you doing. All things in 11.04 built on top of GNOME 2 and it will be hard to get back to Unity or Unity 2D if you install GNOME 3. It's ok to use Gnome Shell in 11.10.
