Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
This system works with 9.3 but not 9.4 or 9.5 install
Splash screen (like the background for the boot menu) appears for logon
but the logon greeter never appears.
If you open a terminal window then startx it will start the gui (XFCE)
as normal with no apparent issue.
The system runs Xubuntu Cosmic just fine as well as everything else I
ever installed on it before now.
