any ideas?
Sound like everything didn't copy to the drive. Are all the applications in /usr/share/applications? What are the specs of the rest of the computer?
It was setup clean /
and home was created by skel
I restored my /home from deja (a backup from xubuntu 14.04)
and it overwrote the skel settings


could something bad  be in ?
~/.local/share/applications/


~/.local/share/session_migration-xfce

Theres your problem there. You can't restore from Xubuntu.

That would be useful to add to the documentation, so others don't get stuck
