Managed to boot back to prior kernel (I got some help). Problem is still happening.
In fact, after the icon in the launchbar stopped pulsating and disappeared the system came up syaing that an error occurred. I hope you got it, but the title was "unity-control-center crashed with signal 5 in g_settings_bind_with_mapping()" And, as an aside, the mouse wasn't clicking, but we could still use the keyboard. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790249 Title: desktop sharing won't start after upgrading to 18.04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: First time destop sharing was started the system detected a problem which was reported -- so there should be some info for you there already.
