[Bug 969044] [NEW] "try ubuntu" button launches unity 3d when orca is running

[Alan Bell]

Public bug reported:

the Unity 3d team appear to have thrown in the towel on getting the
launcher and dash accessibility working so Unity 2d will be the default
desktop for accessible profiles. On the live CD if you have a decent
graphics card the try ubuntu button takes you to a Unity 3d desktop
which is not fully accessible. Getting to a Unity 2d desktop from this
point is quite challenging and requires a logout to a not accessible
lightdm which then froze for me.

In summary, pressing the Try Ubuntu button on the ubiquity first page if
you have already started Orca should launch a Unity2d session, not
Unity3d even if the hardware can handle 3d.
