    Hmm, interesting. That tells us that it’s not actually a problem with your graphics driver or kernel version, and given that it was working on this version before, I would think some aspect of Xorg configuration, your graphics hardware has an issue, or your installation in general has been corrupted when it tried to upgrade.

    You might try to detect corruption by using a tool like debsums to check for any obviously corrupted files.

    What’s the state of your debian packages I wonder… does something like apt-get update or apt-get check highlight any problems with the state of installed packages that could point to a failed upgrade?

        If you can boot into terminal session, e.g. by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F2, you can try:

        sudo apt clean
        sudo apt -f install
        sudo apt clean
        sudo apt dist-upgrade
        sudo apt clean
        

        If sudo apt -f install doesn’t work properly, you can create an apt-cache folder on, e.g. your home partition, assuming this is the one with sufficient amounts of free storage.

        sudo apt clean
        sudo mkdir /home/apt-cache
        sudo nano /etc/fstab
        

        In the fstab you specify where this directory shall be mounted:

        /home/apt-cache    /var/cache/apt/archives    none    bind    0    0
        

        Now you copy the files in place and mount the partition:

        sudo cp -r /var/cache/apt/archives/* /home/apt-cache
        sudo mount -a
        

        Nou you should be able to run the fix-installation and update commands without the errors:

        sudo apt -f install
        sudo apt dist-upgrade
