Hello again. Thank You for your continuing help. As I did before, I tried to load 5.11.0-20 but absolutely no luck. I found the packages at ubuntu.paks(?).org but they locked me up totally. My system froze halfway through the boot process. Tried it 3 times. Same result. I found some more at the ubuntu kernel team site but after loading the kernel nothing showed in grub-customizer or the grub boot menu. Synaptic shows it is loaded and so does: dpkg -l | tail -n +6 | grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+' | grep -Fv $(uname -r) rc linux-image-5.11.0-20-generic 5.11.0-20.21~20.04.1 amd64 Signed kernel image generic rc linux-image-5.8.0-43-generic 5.8.0-43.49~20.04.1 amd64 Signed kernel image generic rc linux-image-5.8.0-55-generic 5.8.0-55.62~20.04.1 amd64 Signed kernel image generic ii linux-image-5.8.0-56-generic 5.8.0-56.63~20.04.1 amd64 Signed kernel image generic ii linux-image-5.8.0-57-generic 5.8.0-57.64~20.04.1 amd64 Signed kernel image generic
5.11.0-20 does not show on any menu. My best guess is possibly dependency issues. Can I try a later kernel? I am using LTS 20.04 and not 21.04 which may be required. Another option is for me is to pop in another ssd and try another distro. Would that work?
