<pre wrap="">Hi guys,
I am using my Xenial Xubuntu install to run my media server via tvMobili.
Since I upgraded to Xenial, tvMobili, that had been running lovely under Mint, will randomly die, sometimes taking the Xenial box with it. I've noticed that on occasion, after random periods of time, when parsing back through the folders on the TV, when I try to return to the root directory list, tvMobili says it can't return to the root listing. Still, if I reconnect it may well play videos fine ...
Why might Xenial and tvMobili not be playing nice?
Any ideas guys?

I've experienced like problems with other apps since installing
Xubuntu 16.04 yesterday: apps freeze, especially those communicating
outside of my laptop.<br>
<br>
Some apps seem to take a long time to load - worse than with ver.
12.04. And, this is after installing/running from an SSD.<br>
<br>
The mouse cursor also disappears. Sometimes I can see the
point-of-focus by moving the mouse around - they change appearance
as they do, getting lighter, when they are the point of focus. This
enables me to "see" the logout icon on my panel and to highlight the
correct choice to logout. After logging out / in, the problems
disappear . . . *for awhile!*<br>
<br>
During the composition of this message, everything froze when I
tried to open Nemo. Already open was was Firefox, a terminal,
Thunderbird and a message Thunderbird message composition window.
While I could see the mouse cursor and apps that were open would
"light up" when I hovered over their indicators on Panel 0, NOTHING
would respond to mouse clicks. AND, I could not get a terminal to
open using ctrl-alt-t. I was able to get to the command line with
ctrl-alt-F2 and reboot from the CLI.<br>
<br>
I AM glad to see the bug related to encryption, wherein swap is
unavailable, has been fixed. (This bug was evidenced by a cryptic
message (pun intended) during boot/login relating to swap being
unavailable and confirming this from the cli with<br>
