Forgive my stupid question, but I just can't seem to get this working. Upgraded to 11.10, but now when I click on Dash Home, the launcher goes translucent, but nothing else happens--no applications, no search pane, not even a blank dash home window. Can anyone help?

Also, what is "daemon?"

Like I said--stupid questions. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try unity --reset in a terminal.

A "daemon" is the term for any process running in the background on your computer providing a service. See the Wikipedia page for a full discussion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(computing)
