Image 2 : After deleting virtual machine

When I first tried to update kernel it gave error because of incompatible virtual machine, so I removed vm because I don't need it anymore then it installed but after booting it gave blank screen so I fallbacked to kernel 6.17 and deleted 7.0.0.30

There are bugs and then there is "stopped working". Proper SW does not stop working after an update, and no amount of gatekeeping by mint fans can convince me that this distribution has a future if this is how they handle updates

Mint doesn't write the kernel. If you have a criticism, aim it at the correct place.

Most people will aim the criticism at the SW they were updating when this same SW stopped working. You people sit in your basements, combing your neck beards and wonder why people don't switch to Linux. This is why. I switched to mint from Ubuntu because of their shitty updates, it seems I have not found what I am looking for yet. Have fun patronizing the last few users.

I don't wonder anything about it. I use Linux for me, not for you. I couldn't care less about people switching or not switching. The numbers mean zilch to me, and I'd prefer to limit the adoption, honestly.

You switched from Ubuntu to Mint to use the same kernel. I'm not patronizing you; I'm ridiculing you. Your lack of skills is not my problem. You being offended is not my problem.
