Hmmm. In ~/.cache/upstart there are lots of files with .log.gz extension, but no application-legacy-ubuntu-system-settings-.log.gz or application-legacy-webbrowser-app-.log.gz. With beginning letter "a" I only see this: ~/.cache/upstart/at-spi2-registryd.log.gz
What I do have is /var/crash/_usr_bin_unity8-dash.1000.crash, _usr_bin_unity8-dash.1000.upload, _usr_bin_unity8-dash.1000.uploaded, _usr_lib_ibus__ibus-ui-gtk3.1000.crash, _usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_bamf_bamfdaemon.1000.crash and _usr_share_apport_apport-gtk.1001.crash.
Do you want me to attach any of these? I used the unity8-dash.1000.crash in my troubleshooting comment above.
In my troubleshooting comment I mentioned that NVIDIA driver causes a lightDM freeze, and that X.org nouveau works well. Graphically (Mir?) I encounter no problems. It is very, very fast indeed.
The spinning Ubuntu logo when trying to open System Settings or Web Browser: in my view this means the program is looking for certain files which it cannot find. Unfortunately, I cannot find the right .log file.
As for the Terminal: I tried to install one, but in the Ubuntu Store I keep getting the message: Download or install error.
Does Unity 8 (network manager) not support a wired connection? I disable my wired connection when starting Unity 8.
