Public bug reported: i guess i just got greedy and added too many programs. I am very new and don't understand how to debug on my own. System dependencies is bit out of my league right now. Will most likely reinstall from DVD that i downloaded and burned. I do not recall if i MD5 this or not. So that may be and issue. The problem did not start until i added a bunch of awesome toys. Using Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release 16.04
