Dear all,
I'm having trouble with my 18.04->18.10 upgrade and I was wondering if you could help.
While leaving my computer during the update process, I returned to a black screen with the message:
"The screen loader is broken and unlocking is not possible anymore." Hitting ctl-alt-f2 as it suggested took me to a black screen with no command prompt, so after a while I hard restarted
my computer.
I returned and I have been logged in but the desktop is black, none of the menu bars appear, etc. Luckily I can call up a terminal, although I can't play with the windows.
Trying `apt get upgrade` tells me I have unmet dependencies with breeze. It says the cosmic 18.10 version of its dependencies are installed (4:5.13.5) but the bionic (18.04) updates version is needed (4:5.12.6) [0] But using `dpkg -s breeze` shows me I have the bionic updates version installed.
Trying to issue `sudo apt --fix-broken install` fails over package breeze. [1]
Trying to just install breeze doesn't work either. [2]
I should add that I had certain problems leading up to the install, which may have left my system in some kind of mixed state. After changing from lts to normal and running `do-release-upgrade -m desktop` I was told I didn't have enough space in /boot, so I removed an old kernel to free up enough space. Then do-release-upgrade told me I had packages to install
first, so I returned back to lts and `apt upgrade`d them. That was well over a gigabyte - which must have been the 18.10 packages since I upgrade regularly. Now /etc/lsb-release says:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=cosmic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.10"
I also tried installing ubuntu-desktop (is that Cannonical's new gnome?) but it gave me errors relating to breeze.
Help appreciated!
Thanks
