After two further re-installs, I had almost given up on using the
terminal for hardware detection. However, today I did an update and for
some reason this seems to have fixed the problem there were three
packages to update but I didn't pay too much attention because they
didn't seem to be related
I'm not sure what fixed it but the recent update seems to have done the
job. Whether it was a software conflict, I'm not sure, but as I seem to
have been the only one affected I'll mark it as fixed.
** Changed in: ubuntu-terminal-app (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released

using reboot or shutdown -P now will also cause a total freeze requiring a hard
shutdown
I have tried to install from a new and verified copy of ubuntu 17.10 and
the same problems exist

addendum
I've just tried booting to a root console and it runs normally there and quite
snappy, but after returning to a normal GUI, the terminal app problem persists.
Also trying to open an x.org session freezes the system requiring hard
reboot (regardless of NVIDIA being on or off).
17.10
addendum
I have just tired it with a Kali 2017.2 live USB (also debian based) and had no
problems
I then tried it with an Ubuntu 17.10 live USB and had the problems as described
