Public bug reported:

Used synaptic package manager to install linux-oem-20.04d kernel.  After reboot 
login worked fine, but then desktop reverted to default background and scale 
factor of 1 instead of 2.  (the new installation dialog appeared on desktop 
after login).
Nautilus was very sluggish to open.  Normal /home was not shown. 

Rebooted and removed Linus-oem-20.04d and everything is fine.

I use a ZFS zpool mirror for my /home (since 16.04 actually).  I had
great luck using the linux-oem-5.10 kernel in the past, but this time
the oem kernel is behaving differently.

I am happy to stay on standard Ubuntu kernel, but just wanted to report
this behavior.
