Hi Daniel,

First I have to admit I am fairly new to Ubuntu

I had an issue upgrading from 19.04 to 20.04 - so I decided to do a fresh
install.

First boot sequence got stuck on a Splash screen with a spinning wheel. I
searched the internet for a solution:
https://itsfoss.com/fix-ubuntu-freezing/

followed those instructions and the system booted.

I thought that what this did was:
"If you add the nomodeset parameter to the kernel, it instructs the kernel
to load the video/graphics drivers after the display server is started."

What is my next step here?

Thanks for your help.

Steve

I'm not sure where you got that info, but nomodeset is like a "safe" video mode, where a generic, unaccelerated driver is used. From the log:
[ 0.043487] You have booted with nomodeset. This means your GPU drivers are DISABLED
[ 0.043487] Any video related functionality will be severely degraded, and you may not even be able to suspend the system properly
[ 0.043488] Unless you actually understand what nomodeset does, you should reboot without enabling it

The next step is to boot without nomodeset and see if the system fails to reach the login screen again. If it does, get to a terminal (Ctr+Alt+F1 or Ctrl+Alt+F2) and copy the Xorg log:
cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/badboot.log

The you can reboot with nomodeset and attach the badboot.log here.
