i upgraded to ubuntu 11.10 a while ago instead of a fresh clean install and then i (regretfully) changed some settings and then the left bar in unity disappeared. to get it back i had to do the following:
* in a terminal run:
ccsm
* search for unity
* enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin
* choose Ignore Conflicts (if you're asked about it)
The best place to *find* answers to programming/development questions, imo, however it's the *worst* place to *ask* questions (if your first question/comment doesn't get any up-rating/response, then u can't ask anymore questions--ridiculously unrealistic), but again, a great reference for *finding* answers.
Thanks!!
