[17:31] <teledyn[m]> I got deep trouble after upgrading to 23.04, on the HP laptop, everything was fine, upgraded with no issues, but on my main machine, a ZaReason Strata notebook, it gets to the UbuntuStudio logo, and then flips to a text screen with a cursor that flashes a few times, then locks, no keys work, not even ctrl-alt-...

[17:32] <teledyn[m]> oh! I see matrix has it's own ideas about text formatting :D
[18:25] <Eickmeyer> teledyn[m]: lightdm? Why are you running lightdm on 23.04?
[18:29] <Eickmeyer> Honestly, you might try asking in #ubuntu:libera.chat for support on this, I feel as though you're outside Ubuntu Studio territory.
[18:29] <Eickmeyer> Especially if you've upgraded from 20.04 onwards which is not supported.
[18:30] <Eickmeyer> By that I mean in-place upgraded.
[21:33] <teledyn[m]> ok, but I'd like to understand this part better: "Especially if you've upgraded from 20.04 onwards" because wasn't it around then that core things in UbuntuStudio diverged from the main? So 20.04 was the LAST UbuntuStudio?  But long story short, I've traced it down to problems with the NVidia 390 driver, reverting to nouveau doesn't solve the problem, but it at least lets me into my machine.
[22:07] <Eickmeyer> teledyn[m]: Ubuntu Studio 20.04 was the last one on Xfce, so we don't support in-place upgrades from that one going forward. If you did so despite our advice in the release notes, you're on your own.
[22:07] <Eickmeyer> Simply because the DE packages can interfere.
