Thanks for the bug report.

The main problem I can see here is that you have the kernel graphics driver in debug mode. To fix that you will need to remove "drm.debug=0xe plymouth:debug" from /etc/default/grub and then run:

  sudo update-grub

and reboot.

If that doesn't fix the problem then I would next recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04.1 which is much faster.

You also seem to be running an unsupported kernel that is actually older than the official kernel for Ubuntu 20.04.

Fixing these problems that you seem to have created for yourself is a little bit complicated so if you are not very technical then I suggest the simplest solution is:

  1. Backup all your data to external drives.
  2. Reinstall from scratch using Ubuntu 22.04.1: https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop
