This is normal with the last few versions of Gnome. I see it too. Nothing to do.

There's bug report on the DMZ cursor. A fix is in progress. Meanwhile use something else.

I had the same thing happen. I made This note in my log:

I probably logged into the Wayland session and changed to a different cursor there.

I understand cursor themes now should define a...

Well, I know that in the last step, 108 'obsolete' packages were removed. These were optional removals. I assume the updater just runs apt autoremove.

Also, at the start of the upgrade, is says...

As a final step, the Software Updater does offer to remove unneeded packages. This may just involve running apt autoremove, I'm not sure. It's a "keep all" or "remove" all option (no pick and...

As mentioned in post #7, I Wanted to install Ubuntu 24.04 in an existing LV. This is impossible using the new Ubuntu Desktop Installer. As mentioned at the end of post #7, I hoped an in-place upgrade...

I'm using an MSI Pro B660M-G motherboard. This is an Intel board, while yours is AMD. Still, it has the same Realtek® RTL8125BG 2.5Gbps LAN controller. Completed this build in Jan 2023. With this...

I think the terminology in the poll needs clarification. The first three choices are for an "Upgrade". The last three are for an "Install".

"Install" would be used with New...

First, I downloaded the Ubuntu 24.04 iso and burned a USB with the installer. I wanted to see if installation to an existing LV might be supported. It wasn't.

Instead I did a QEMU/KVM install as...

I added to the "affects me" count. I was person #2. Nice report!

This situation has existed since Ubuntu 23.04 when the new installer was introduced. A bug report on this missing capability was filed back then, but now is marked "Won't Fix". That's not...
