I thought that might be the case, and looked in a couple of the /var
subdirectories and didn't see dkms. I may run a more exhaustive search
before trying the new linux install. I'll be doing that within an hour
or so; had to be out most of the day on other business.

At the moment the system with the fault is backing up a bunch of work
files. I have another drive on the system and may install 18.04.3 if the
issue doesn't resolve with the new linux install (that alternate drive
is just sitting there with 16.04 and hasn't been in use).
