    State of play is that the machine boots now, however the desktop (xfce) is not being displayed, just stiped lines.

    I can launch a terminal and use xfce commands, but can't get it to a stable desktop after startup.

    I just want to get back to the custom version of xfce desktop

      Sorted it

      I removed ~/.config. This has settings for the xfce.
      Reboot and bingo - all back to normal.

        I installed Ubuntu NBR on my Aspire One - much better IMHO.

        Just google for it and you'll find details on how to put the ISO on a USB stick using unetbootin and boot/install from there.
