Public bug reported: Confusion-confusion: the ubuntu-bug -w command selected xfce4-panel. However, the bug I wanted to report (following instruction after ubuntu- buf -w command) was the "summary" above, i.e. LibreOffice Base data table bottom section is blank after running distro upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04. Actually, there were other problems, but I can live with them or fixed them myself. This one is not a big problem, but my be the indication of a much bigger and general problem: window manager or display manager mis-behavior after standard upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04. Here the problem has an easy fix and therefore the problem is just an annoyance. The easy fix (which only corrects the symptom, but not the bug) is to adjust the data table window frame right side larger or smaller a little. Immediately, the bottom part of the window (I don't know the official name of it, but it is where Record n of N + arrow for next record, last record or new record, + horizontal slider shows up) becomes visible. The reason I suspect this is a harbinger of bigger display/window problem is because on two separate older desktop machines (different graphics cards) a similar problem occurs, but more generally. Namely, on some application the window within application is blank, or worse yet, any pop-up or generated window appears totally black or white. The only way to shut down the machine decently is to switch to CTL-SH-f1 console mode, login, and type in a reboot or shutdown command. This has made the upgraded machine totally unusable. One more thing: on that other machine the symlink /etc/resolve.conf file is missing after upgrade.
