I'm looking for some advice on how I can upgrade 100's of Ubuntu 20.04.X installations to get all that 20.04.4 goodness.
First some background:
I manage an environment where we have 100's of Ubuntu 20.04.X installations. Up until now, we've just lived with the fact that they are using lvmpipe instead of the built-in/onboard Intel graphics. Anyways for poops and giggles I decided to download the late ...

I'm considering replacing snap with flatpak. What happens during a version upgrade of Ubuntu? Is the Ubuntu upgrade programmed to reinstall snap and what is the risk of pinning or holding snap from being reinstalled?
I would like to avoid having to purge snap on every upgrade and don't want to risk ending up with a broken system because some key system component has become a snap package.
After installing Kubuntu 20.04, I found that I had to use snap to obtain a current version of GIMP -- which I did.
Now I'm looking ahead to needing to "upgrade" in a couple years, and it occurs to me to wonder if snapd put the installed files for GIMP in under my / folder (which will be reformatted, then refilled with Kubuntu 24.04, I presume) or in a hidden folder under my /home/[user] folder, w ...

There are tons of questions about this error but almost all of them refer to interrupted dist-upgrades. Instead, I've upgraded from 20.04 to 21.10 without any problem (at least, no popups that show errors).
The machine is headless and it's configured with a dummy monitor to be accessed by a remote desktop application:
Section "Device"

I have bought the epomaker k870T keyboard and used it successfully these previous weeks under Ubuntu 20.04. The special function of the F keys, such as volume up/down on F12 and the rest never worked, but that didn't bother me, since they worked as simple F1-12 keys instead.
Today I tried to use my keyboard under Ubuntu, but it needed to be re-paired for some reason. After pairing it, it switched ...

When updating/upgrading I used to get kernel updates once in a while. Now I haven't got any kernel updates since December.

I upgrade Nextcloud desktop client in Ubuntu from version 2.6.2 to version 3.4.2. While everything worked well before, now I'm left with messages saying "session" is "closed" and there seems to be no way to connect as before, with commands on the right of the account details.
