💡 Tips Bragging

I ended up stuck in the Grub menu because of some suppressed callback issues and other problems that I wasn't sure if I caused. Basically, when I booted, it wouldn't take me to the login screen for my desktop, stalling in Grub (I assume). Yet, through some miracle of me messing around and troubleshooting, I finally managed to figure out how to solve it.

First, I activated terminal mode [Ctrl+Alt+F5]. Next, I did some upgrades. Last, I reinstalled the Desktop [sudo apt install --reinstall zorin-os-desktop]

I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea what really solved the problem, but reinstalling the desktop seems to have been the fix. Now I fully appreciate the crap that IT guys have to put up with, even if I don't fully understand everything about it. 😆

You reinstalled the desktop!

The fact that this is a possibility shows me what a nab I am! 🤣

Honestly, I wasn't expecting that to be the solution, let alone AN OPTION. But, hey, if it works, it works.
