Aere G: <Posting above the fray, for speed>
So it looks like overall the Lu 20+ install is "OK" . . . except for the issue with Chromium ID in the drop down menu?? Having just done a couple of upgrade moves to get to 20.10 in both of my ubuntu distros, I do recall seeing a wiki that seemed to suggest going from LTS to the next LTS, in this case 18.04 . . . and then to 20.04 . . . you may have gone through that process, but it wasn't spelled out . . . **possibly** if you jumped from 16 straight outta compton to 20???? that may have got some stuff "mishandled"???? Usually if there is some issue, even "bug report" level stuff, after a few updates they often "just disappear . . . gone . . . just like that, gone . . . ."
