Hi all,
At the weekend I upgraded my desktop PC from 18.04 to 20.04. Every
morning after power up when I log in, once the desktop loads, any icons
on the desktop do not get drawn and all of the launcher buttons do not
respond to mouse clicks (nor does the top bar) so I have to CTL+ALT+F5
and login to a shell and reboot. If I move my ~/.config directory out of
the way, before I log in, then the desktop works OK for the rest of that
day. I can copy directories from the moved ~/.config (for things like
Chrome history, nautilus bookmarks, etc...)
But the following day, after being powered down I have the same problem
when I login in the morning. It's a PITA.
I've also tried removing the ~/.cache dir and that doesn't seem to help
at all. I am loathe to move ~./local as this has over 70 sub directories
in it with years of useful metadata in it I guess. It would take ages to
work out which dir (if there is one) is the cause...
How do I go about debugging this? What log files are likely to be
relevant? Anyone seen anything similar?
Just FYI, I'm not at home today so no rush.... Am on my laptop which I
upgraded to 20.04 a while ago with no problems at all ;-)
Cheers
Al
