<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I know I should be asking these ?s and commenting on the Ubuntu
support pages as well as others. So don't reply unless you really
want to. I think the newish snap pkgs have been installed through
upgrades and are the culprits for my issue. <br>
</p>
<p>Just an FYI. I was attempting to use 'send to' function in
Shotwell (default photo app in Ubuntu) and no file was being
attached to the email message that popped up. I did a small amount
of research and found that snap and flatpak pkgs were causing
difficulties. I forced installed an earlier, and then default,
version of Shotwell and it works now as it should and always has.
So my updates and upgrades pulled the snap pkgs in and installed
them.<br>
</p>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Here's this: '$ chromium --version<br>
Chromium 124.0.6367.118 snap'</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I uninstalled that version and force
installed '80.0.3987' version, which is confirmed in synaptic but
the 'chrome --version' command remains unchanged and the 'about'
in chromium shows the above snap version.<br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I'd like to remove snap versions of
pkgs and reinstall apt versions. I think my udpdating and
upgrading pulled in all of those snap pkgs making many apt pkgs
obsolete. Maybe the source of the vast auto-remove list? From what
I read snap causes all sorts of problems and may be the source of
some of mine. I know the group are not Ubuntu fans as such but I'd
like to find a solution, if possible. I'll keep giving it some
time here and there as I have written, this is mainly an
inconvenience so far. <br>

Thanks again Tom and sorry that I'm responding before I read
the whole thread. But FYI the 'inxi' command returned 'command
not found'. <br>

I noticed that. 'command not found' Indicates only that the
package has not been installed. Again, not that I think it
would necessarily be helpful right now, but I'm pretty sure
'inxi' is in one of the Ubuntu software repos if you care to
take a look at it: 'apt list inxi'. If the listing for it
shows, then do 'sudo apt install inxi'. But you probably
already know that, right? <br>

Yes, I've checked the BIOS and changed the boot order. The
cloned SSD shows up and I change the order so it is first but
it still doesn't boot. <br>
<br>

Just a wild guess, but I would imagine that *both* the original
drive that the computer sees first *and* the new cloned SSD
system would have to the boot order correctly defined in order
for the new SSD system to boot? Something to do with or similar
to "chain booting" used on machines with multiple operating
systems? <br>
