1) sometimes hang on power-down / restart.
2) panel sometimes doesn't show up on start-up.
I fixed 1) by adding:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="reboot=efi" to /etc/default/grub
Issue 2 happens about once every 5 restarts or startups. I can get the panel back with xfce4-panel --restart or xfce4-panel --replace in terminal but wondered if there is a more elegant or permanent solution?
The only other things I have messed around with in Grub where to add "elevator=deadline" so that Grub now reads as follows:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="elevator=deadline quiet splash"
I have also disabled hibernate for the benefit of the SSD.
The only other clues I can see are in System reports, which list:
_usr_bin_xfce4-power-manager.1000.crash (a few days ago)
_usr_bin_xfce4-panel.1000.crash (a few days ago)
_usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_xfce4_panel_wrapper-1.0.1000.crash (yesterday)
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Cheers
