Hi Daniel, First I have to admit I am fairly new to Ubuntu
I had an issue upgrading from 19.04 to 20.04 - so I decided to do a fresh install. First boot sequence got stuck on a Splash screen with a spinning wheel. I searched the internet for a solution: https://itsfoss.com/fix-ubuntu-freezing/ followed those instructions and the system booted. I thought that what this did was: "If you add the nomodeset parameter to the kernel, it instructs the kernel to load the video/graphics drivers after the display server is started." What is my next step here? Thanks for your help. Steve On Sun, Jul 19, 2020 at 12:05 AM Daniel Letzeisen < 1888...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: > Why are you booting with the 'nomodeset' parameter?
