@Gargron why not wait a few more weeks and transition straight to 20.04? 🤔

@Gargron Why are you running an OS from 2016? Don't use Ubuntu LTS but regular Ubuntu and upgrade every 6 months. That's a smaller step than upgrading your system from a 2 year old release every time. It's safer and has less bugs.

@Gargron Try Elementary OS. Smooth as silk, I haven't had a single problem with it.

@Gargron I've had many problems qith 18.04 😕

@Gargron if it is not so critical for you to change a seat I would like to recomend to migrate from Ubuntu to Manjaro. Rolling release, you know.

@Gargron Hi! How much easier/better is using a Linux based operating system in your opinion?

@Gargron Sometimes a clean install is the best bet. There are sometimes changes made that don't jive well if old packages and configurations are there. It could also just be a driver issue; back in Debian 9 my Corsair keyboard and mouse wouldn't work unless I pulled in the backports kernel, and even in Debian 10 my Lenovo touchpad doesn't work in the installer, but is fine after the system is up and I've installed the non free firmware packages.

@Gargron do not put 19 on it do not put 19 on it to not put 19 on it you will fry your bios...kiss ago nite nite.
