Booting 11.04 to the logon screen you'll find an option to choose
'session'. You can select Classic GNOME for the traditional
2-panel layout you're used to.

Mozilla provide the source code and binary installers for their
browser. You can get them from their website.

Thank you! May {deity of your choice} shower you with blessings and
protect you from whatever malevolence possessed Shuttleworth et al
for this profound put-me-out-of-misery stupidity!

I like 11.4. I login auto. So is there a way for me to use the Classic
GNMOME? Just would like to try it.

Thanks and God Bless Johnny3

According to the Firefox website 4.x is still a beta also.

Wait until you try Gnome 3. I suspect you'll have a heart attack
when your min/max windows buttons vanish!

I'll try that one out carefully and slowly. And not for a long time.

The only thing I've noticed that seems to be misfiring is samba. It's
not starting, and manually starting it in a terminal isn't working
either. So first up, reinstall samba and see what happens next.

This was solved the same night by dumping Unity as you'd have been
aware had you looked just a few posts further down the thread. But
thanks anyway for chiming in with such "useful" advice.
