Open a terminal and do:


--- Code: ---sudo leafpad /etc/default/apport
--- End code ---

change enabled=1 to enabled=0

save and close.

Again, I'm not sure if this is causing your problem, but the output from two of the commands I requested shows that two files got changed by an update and you need to change them back to their original forms.  Carry out following instructions to change the files, then reboot and see if your problem disappears.

You're going to open each file with your text editor as root, then make changes to the files and save the files with the corrections made to them.

Open a terminal to carry out these instructions.

First, from terminal enter this command to open the /etc/issue file as root with the leafpad text editor.


--- Code: ---gksu leafpad /etc/issue
--- End code ---

The file will now open in the text editor.  Below is what the file should show with the parts you need to change shown in red.


--- Quote ---Linux Lite 2.0 LTS \n \l


--- End quote ---

Make the change, save the file, close the text editor, then enter next command below to fix the next file.


--- Code: ---gksu leafpad /etc/lsb-release
--- End code ---

Below in red is the part you need to change in the lsb-release file:


--- Quote ---DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Lite 2.0"
--- End quote ---

Make change, save file, close text editor, close terminal.

Go ahead and reboot to see if it solved problem.


P.s.  Whether or not this is/was the cause of your problem, you should know that whenever you perform a system update and are asked during the update if you want to keep an existing configuration file or replace with the update version, always choose to KEEP the existing one.  Most of the time, the instructions will tell you the default answer is "N" ("No") -- meaning don't replace the file, keep the original and that is what you should do.
