@Israel: Frying pan, meet fire . . . I tried all those suggestions, except mv .cache . . . got into recovery and did the dpkg and fsck and the update etc . . . seeing errors "could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu'" I thought maybe the network connection is busted . . . ran the enable networking mode . . . saw something about "dbus" . . . "numerous "cannot add port tty/tty P20" lines . . . . running fsck: dev/sda 4: Ionodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found" "run fsck manually (w/o -a or -p options)" . . . [have not run fsck manually yet, if I knew how to] This list of errors ended with "skipping mounting / since Plymouth is not available" So, numerous issues seem to have been found . . . typing this in Guest session . . . obviously the network is "connected" . . . trying to log in to my user account just results in Catch-22 cycle of log in windows . . . . Thinking about the history, since I'm using an newer apple keyboard I need to hit "fn" before the keyboard commands will work, so I don't think I inadvertently executed a command that did this, I'm under the possible belief that update/upgrade added something that caused a problem with the system?? Final clue??? In the pre-splash along with the i2s error is the radeon errors, "unable to find BIOS ROM"??? but again, able to get to log in window, or log in as Guest? F
