Ulyana: apt-get dist-upgrade eliminated amd64-microcode, and networking
by mrmazda from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5FCPR)
Is this a known problem?
Following a simple apt-get dist-upgrade on Mint 20, as I've done many times in the past, graphics are stuck at 1024x768, and 'ip a' lists only lo. Nothing in /etc/network/interfaces was changed since last September. There are no clues from "Failed" lines in journal.
