Maybe you could try installing Kubuntu and then installing the Ubuntu Studio Desktop?
That works fine for me. HTH. --- With all best wishes, Dave On 2020-10-20 23:19, David King wrote:

No problems.I'm not doing anything really complex, the usual home stuff but no gaming (D&D using VTT and discord, but nothing very taxing to the system).Installation was from the DVD, nothing other than the usual items asked for during the installation.Mike Squires On 10/19/20 4:19 PM, David King wrote:I bought an Asus FX505 Tuf Gaming laptop, with Intel Core i5 CPU and Nvidia GPU.It came with Windows 10.

I can move the mouse around, but not click on anything, not drag anything. Key presses do nothing. I could press CTRL ALT F1 for a terminal and do things there, but since I updated the kernel to 5.8.0-23-lowlatency, even that no longer works after booting.I would really like to get Ubuntu Studio working on this laptop, as Windows 10 sucks. I can revert it all back to just Windows 10 if necessary, but would rather use Linux.Any ideas on what is wrong?Some websites suggest the graphics driver. I have the Nvidia proprietary driver installed and selected, originally the Xorg-nouveau driver was in use, but I removed this as some say it is buggy.David
