I do not want to reinstall Ubuntu 22.04.4 just 3 months before I install Ubuntu 24.04.1 Too much work.

OK. I bit the bullet (and it turned out to be not-that-painful). From the Jammy Proposed PPA, I installed:

     sudo apt install libmutter-10-0=42.9-0ubuntu8
     sudo apt install gir1.2-mutter-10=42.9-0ubuntu8

and autoremoved everything it proposed.

I then rebooted normally, and was presented with a console terminal screen (autoremove had removed gnome-shell, gdm, and a bunch of other things). How 1980s!

I then installed

     sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop

and rebooted normally.

Everything seems to have returned AND no results from sudo journalctl -b0 | grep MetaSyncRing

Hope this helps others. :-) Thanks Daniel for taking this seriously.
