Thank you for looking into this problem. I am sorry that the information I have given is so limited but I ran 15.10 from a memory stick, without installing, to check that it would work before actually installing, and discovered the problem. I am not going to install 15.10 as it is more-or-less unusable with this problem and I do not want to install it to get debug info and reinstall 15.04 to continue to use the machine. I do not khow the live versions work but will the apport command work and can I install xdiagnose, if so I will do this. 15.04 run from a usb stick does not show the same problem so it is something that has been changed.
