Bluetooth not working at all, internet not working at all, and even the setting for HDMI audio output is gone. The settings page is just empty.

I managed to load an older kernel(?) and got Bluetooth and internet working again, but still no audio. I'm as much of a novice at running Linux as you can get. I've been trying to troubleshoot this with the help of an LLM, but I have no idea what I'm doing here.

Any help, please?

I've upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04 to 22.04 to 24.04 all without issue

Wellllllll,

I've upgraded the same installation from ubuntu 16.04-24.04 but there was a problem with DNS at one point that I had to fix somewhere between the upgrades, but now I can't remember if the problem was with LTS version or not. I jumped off at one point and upgraded to one of the non-LTS versions, then went back to LTS after having some problems with package versions, installing some software.
