Be mindful that Ubuntu includes automatic updates, meaning even without using apt directly it may scan or apply updates. Manually removing apt lock files might lead to issues.
The upgrade went through smoothly, but I spent more than an hour waiting and performed several reboots before removing the lock file. Having updates active during installation ensured everything should have upgraded automatically. Seeing the same result on two different installations suggests a hardware issue that 19.04 didn’t handle well. It’s strange the GPU stopped working at the same time as it wasn’t detected again until I upgraded the kernel to 5.3.7 from 5.3.0.
everything functions properly on my laptop, version 19.04 and now 19.10
I chose to upgrade my Ubuntu OS from 19.04 to 19.10 and noticed a clear boost in performance! Everything runs much faster and loads quicker.
Running 19.10 from a fresh install. Avoid using the in-place upgrader (GUI or terminal) since it often causes issues, or else. It’s still laggy and full of bugs—especially noticeable in beta. Surprisingly, it left beta this way. 19.04 feels more stable compared to that. Save yourself and stick with 18.04 until 20.04 is released.
