Avoid Ubuntu seems after the last vulnerability, Ubuntu still seems quite full of glitches. It is acting quite funny, at least 17.10 X386 edition, after installing on a laptop of mine. Maybe I will get better results after running updates, but it seems they have not corrected the bugs on the initial install from Conical Homepage, I would suggest sticking with Mint for time being, or another trusted Linux distribution.
I guess until Ubuntu is free of bugs, anybody should avoid installing it on a system. Knowing luck I had with Conical, hopefully the issue can be resolved in a timely manner. Anybody else having issues with any or all Ubuntu editions and can you suggest any solutions to the issues.

Going to attempt installing 16.04 LTS X64 BIT Edition and see if it improves, I have almost always had issues on new releases of an Operating System. I will keep you posted. Also Trying another HDD.

16.04 LTS seems to work fine...
