Upgrade from 9 to 10 kernel fails to load modules [SOLVED]

[Scorpion]

I used apt full-upgrade and now is fine!

But how can I enable desktop icons on buster?

It was in (gnome) tweaks before.

In this http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2019/07/what- ... ition.html nice article I found an extension for that: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/ ... top-icons/.

I discovered that apt full-upgrade should be use when upgrading the system.

I used it before when apt upgrade left a few packages not upgraded.

Where can I see all the apt options?

Code: Select all

apt -h
apt 1.8.2 (amd64)
Usage: apt [options] command

apt is a commandline package manager and provides commands for
searching and managing as well as querying information about packages.
It provides the same functionality as the specialized APT tools,
like apt-get and apt-cache, but enables options more suitable for
interactive use by default.

Most used commands:
  list - list packages based on package names
  search - search in package descriptions
  show - show package details
  install - install packages
  reinstall - reinstall packages
  remove - remove packages
  autoremove - Remove automatically all unused packages
  update - update list of available packages
  upgrade - upgrade the system by installing/upgrading packages
  full-upgrade - upgrade the system by removing/installing/upgrading packages
  edit-sources - edit the source information file

See apt(8) for more information about the available commands.
Configuration options and syntax is detailed in apt.conf(5).
Information about how to configure sources can be found in sources.list(5).
Package and version choices can be expressed via apt_preferences(5).
Security details are available in apt-secure(8).
                                        This APT has Super Cow Powers.

I can' t see the -o option for example.

The apt(8) command uses the same flags as apt-get(8) & apt-cache(8) but with slightly different options applied. I think the dependency resolution algorithm is different as well.

I think the dependency resolution algorithm is different as well.

Different from apt-get? What makes you think so? I haven't read documentation or debates but I thought that that was superficial differences as the man states clearly «apt provides a high-level commandline interface for the package management system.»

From some of my tests I just can say that apt is slower than apt-cache in certain circumstances. I haven't tried to compare dependencies resolution, maybe I should.

Edit:
thanks for your response Head_on_a_Stick. For the record, I opened a thread here http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=145091

The release notes for Debian buster advise using apt full-upgrade rather than apt-get dist-upgrade so I am presuming it handles the dependencies slightly differently. But I may be wrong.

Anyway this is all off-topic for this thread, please open another if you want to discuss the relative merits of the various APT front-ends.
