Hey Fritz, The best way to update grub is using the `update-grub` CLI utility. But you have to do it from the distro you installed grub with.  If you can remember which one you installed grub with, simply run that command using `sudo` and it should automatically detect the most recent kernel a

Ralf: I just did a quick search on the googly and it seems like syslinux is for "MS/DOS" or "BIOS" and/or possibly "FAT32" systems?? It didn't seem to mention Macs, although it did show something on "UEFI" . . . but then one item was saying, "It won't boot ext2 systems"??? So it seems like sysli

I tested this on Lubuntu 20.04 by installing the snap of Spotify. I am unable to reproduce this issue. When I click on the menu items my default browser (Firefox) opens a spotify login web page.
