If that didn't work for you then you must be experiencing a different problem
Removing /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video is the right solution. I'll make sure

I did the very same upgrade: 8.04 - 9.10 (won't skip releases like

Aha! Okay that explains it.
Yeah, as a general rule we recommend people upgrade either from LTS to
LTS, or from release N to release N+1, as these are the scenarios we
focus on testing during development. Upgrades that skip releases are
