When I boot kernel 4.19.0-13-amd64 my monitor res is
1024x768. It should be 1680x1050 which I get when I boot
into kernel 4.19.0-12-amd64. Also, when I look at the xfce
display settings when I have -13 booted it has some generic
display listed and only the 1024x768 res. When I am booted
in -12 the display is listed as an LG 23", which it is, and
a bunch of different resolutions that could be used.
I have tried rebuilding the kernel and initrd to no avail.
It looks to me like the kernel is not recognizing the
monitor for some reason but beyond that I haven't the
slightest idea as to where to look!
This situation is often a case of missing firmware, but
it's unusual that it
happens simply due to a minor kernel upgrade. Please
upload /var/log/Xorg.0.log
from a -13 boot to http://pastebin.com/ or equivalent,
and provide here the
resulting URL, so that we may try to determine what is
happening. Also please
paste here output from: 'inxi -GSa', for similar reason.
The log file is in pastebin at
wix-Xorg.0.log
The output from inxi is attached,and pasted below, for
both -12 and -13. There is a difference between them!

You have installed unsupported nvidia driver version for
your VGA. Last version that supports your adapter is 390, so
you need to install "nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver".
You will need to remove 418 driver after installation, or
switch to 390 version by typing:
# update-glx --config nvidia
to make sure your system will use it. You can use "glxinfo"
utility from "mesa-utils" package to see what driver is
currently in use.
$ glxinfo | grep -e 'OpenGL' -e 'glx'

With kindest regards, Alexander.

Alexander;
My most fervent and heartfelt thank you!
That solved the problem completely. The system crashed on
the first try while it was updating the initrd but after I
rebooted it worked fine and the remainder of your procedure
went smoothly.
Again, Thank You!
Dennis
