I hadn't looked but I since figured out how to fix the problem. I had a grub theme that showed a photo behind the menu.  I removed the photo and the theme then rebooted.  Now I've got the standard grub menu, but it works.  You asked if I had checked to see if any errors were logged.  Where would I look? thanks On 11/7/24 17:10, Stephen Partington via PLUG-discuss wrote: > > Have you looked to see if there are any errors loggged? > > > On Sat, Nov 2, 2024, 12:01 PM Jim via PLUG-discuss > wrote: > > I have a Dell Optiplex 7010 with 32GB RAM.  Recently I installed > Kubuntu > 24.04.1 on  a Kingston 240GB SSD.
