Xubuntu 22.04 to 24.04

About a month ago, I started to get an issue with updates, one of my repositories, "https://repo.waydro.id jammy InRelease", had "lost" it's gpg key. This was also preventing the dist-upgrade to 24.04.


The full error was as follows (when running sudo apt update):

Err:8 https://repo.waydro.id jammy InRelease The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 0E406D181DCEE19C

I found the solution to this here:

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/753229/i-received-gpg-error-while-using-sudo-apt-update-in-pop-os-22-04

which provided this command:

curl --progress-bar --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -Sf https://repo.waydro.id/waydroid.gpg --output /usr/share/keyrings/waydroid.gpg

and running that command fixed the issue.


I was then able to proceed with the dist-upgrade, which all went well...until I rebooted...

I run two screens, my main screen, and to the left a second screen. On boot, I was presented with a dark teal background for both, and the screen were mirroring. A mouse pointer was present on both screens but did nothing.

CTRL+ALT+4 opened a terminal.

I then ran this command:

xfce4-display-settings

which brought up the xubuntu display configuration. I was then able to set my main screen as the Primary display, and "move" the second screen to the left. I turned off Mirroring, and then set my two panels (one vertical, one horizontal) to my main display. Lst thing was to then use the Desktop dialog to set a background for each screen.

Back in business.

Updates:
