Hi Tim,

it's very good that you described how you solved the issue :).
It's not good, that you didn't do it within the original thread :(.

There is a list archive
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2016-October/thread.html ,
if you take a look, you'll see that the "Odd start up issue" mails are
sorted. The way you solved it, provided by the "Thanks" mail, is not
listed as part of the thread.

Often people add a [solved] to the subject. However, with or without
[solved] in the subject, it's better to keep the subject and not to
break the thread, next time, because users might have the same issue
and search the archive.

Regards,
Ralf
