Action: edit post-> Blank display. Nothing of the post to edit. Looks like a blank new post I would type into to reply.

Interestingly: If I go to another of my posts in this thread, I can edit. It shows the post and was able to edit successfully.

Addendum: Well, I thought I would try editing that same post that was showing as blank post to see what would happen, (like a possible error or something),with putting in a in the post. The whole post is gone except the 'a'. That was the post I had put everything in including the sequence of commands I would use, steps, links pertinent. I am annoyed with myself. I doubt I will have the will to re-write it as it was again

@mokodo, was that post #10 : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread....6#post13510956 ?
I see you have updated it a large number of times, we can restore to a previous version if you wish.
