i tried a few things misko_2083 posted and had mixed results
i pasted the long code into leafpad..saved it as logoff.sh and made it executable and
set it on the desktop. On the Athlon 5350 pc it immediately went to this little window with options
click on any of these options it immediately works, I was surprised. So i restarted and clicked on the start menu log off button, the original issue, and the same frozen results.
I'm not a coder but is the code you posted misko_2083 the same as the one linked to the log off button in the whisker menu? Seems like it works but with a different gui style logoff window.
BTW..i also pasted it into terminal and the log out window immediately popped up with the same working results
next i tried the video card suggestion script code and i have found an odd happening. I noticed this the other day but didnt think anything of it. I can see the additional driver updates to install but i cant screen shot it with the athlon 5350 pc...it freezes. So i loaded the live usb onto my trusty Phenom II pc and captured what it looks like in the Athlon 5350 pc..
It shows im using the VESA driver. Where it says "open source tested" next to the end of the vesa string, the Athlon 5350 says "recommended". Ive tried in LL and Xubuntu to grab the fglrx drivers with no success...So i stay with the VESA (Recommended) driver. My Phenom PC has a sapphire 6850 in it and the fglrx works fine. The vesa in the Athlon 5350 seems ok to...1080p rez and no heat issues from what i can tell. I don't know why it wont let me get the fglrx drivers. Maybe its just this little chips on-board graphics are odd or the fglrx arent optimized for it.
I'm torn from thinking its the graphics driver because there's 2 things that conflict.
reason against video driver issues - xubuntu works and logs off fine with this athlon 5350 pc
reason for video driver issues - the screenshot tool doesnt work on the athlon 5350 pc
remember im doing all these things in a live session...but as i mentioned in my first post, i installed LL with the same issues as the live previously.
I haven't mentioned it yet but i really appreciate all the input. I never thought i'd get this type of response. The best part is i'm learning a little bit more about Linux
update
here's a screen of the graphics setup in xubuntu...identical to LL...it's not vesa but Xorg...and it says recommended above the driver version line...not beside it
