@Walter: "Then don't be too surprised. When you're working on the development version, it's expected there will be some amount of breakage, no matter how much folks try to avoid it."
I have experienced a certain amount of "breakage" over the years, particularly when there was a "PPC" distro; this last bit of "breakage," which now seems to be taking a break . . . appeared to be "systemic" across the machine, and not just in one distro . . . and hard to know which distro might have been "involved" as a few of them are "rolling" and each of them seems to have a different kernel. The Lubuntu 19.04 was the last actual install, then upgraded to 19.10, but I have upgraded via Terminal, most of them . . . and there was a week or so back the problem with a Leap 15.1 kernel, that did "do some breakage" . . . a few days later a new kernel was released . . . a little hard to be "scientific" with so many players playing through the same machine . . . it might be akin to a "multiple personality disorder."

I did this OSX and linux thing on all of my computers over the last 12 years or so, in the same way of using Yaboot or Grub . . . but the APFS format is a new one, this appears to be similar to if I booted into single user with one install of OSX 10.14, they run some bash script at the beginning that mentions "UC Berkeley" or something like that . . . . I don't know if that is put on the "mobo" when the install is run, or into its own EFI partition, but, it shows up for a few seconds and then Grub appears . . . now once again functioning, seeming to be OK. In the interest of "science" . . . today I couldn't make my "which distro is this morning's distro" decision fast enough, and the top listing is U-MATE 18.04 . . . today, the "system program problem" error window that doesn't show any "details" did not open after logging in to GUI . . . ???? We've all perhaps moved on to the next point of breakage? I wanted to see if this issue was still happening in "ubuntu" or if it has now been upgraded/fixed . . . . Since this thread wasn't exactly about all of the problems I was having, but trying to figure out if the "unidentified system problem" was indicating something "serious" or something temporary . . . at least in MATE it appears to have been "temporary." If it continues to open when I get back to Lu 19.10 . . . I'll mention it. Thanks for the conversation on it. F > > -- > @wxl | polka.bike > C563 CAC5 8BE1 2F22 A49D > 68F6 8B57 A48B C4F2 051A >
