No change at all, same ting happens.

Thanks for your help Chris and you also Brian. But I think that it's
something to do with my /home partition and I'm going to format it and
reinstall again and see if something changes.

I have backups of the files and data, so will not lose anything.

Thanks for your help. It's appreciated.
