Latest update messes things up












1















Today I updated ubuntu (usual update, that shows authomaticaly every few days) and after restarting, I got weird resolution (smaller screen), no internet connection, almost no options in settings menu,…



I don't know what happened an how to get things back?



Maybe this was somehow connected: after update and befor restarting I changed kernel from 4.15.0-43-generic to 4.15.0-45-generic (see this thread: Minecraft crashes, losing connection )



UPDATE: it also doesn't wake up from hybernation



Ifconfig -a gives me just lo interface. I don't get my ethernet

From the comments...



When booting from -45 kernel, symptoms are "weird resolution (smaller screen), no internet connection, almost no options in settings menu, and hibernation problems".



Booting to the prior -44 kernel and all of these symptoms were cured. For the short term, continue to boot to this kernel to maintain full system operation. (note: -44 kernel may have an issue with console ttys).



Monitor Software Updater for -46 or newer kernel updates, then boot to them and see if symptoms are also gone.
