Comment 9 for bug 1571208

@gunnarhj: That is correct and I have found others with the same and similar problems. 16.04 broke it but it is still broken in 17.10. 16.02 worked perfectly once I followed the procedures for the known issue. That same procedure as well as that included in this bug report do not fix this issue on my systems (more then one).

User error could explain why multiple systems with different OS versions don't work properly. I have been fighting with it for weeks and added 17.10 to the list last night to see if I could out grow the issue. No luck - Am willing to consider anything.

There may be a correlation to AMD 64 Ubuntu Mate installs as I have seen other support requests on the same platform as mine.
