Upgrade to 24.04 (from 23.10) failed to complete, UI all message up

[John_Manko]

After reboot:



I can mouse over the missing text and it appears, but as soon as the window loses focus it's gone again.

Also, I have two monitors, but a third "Unknown Display" is showing in Display Settings. Additionally, in order to mouse from the left monitor to the right (include window dragging), I have mouse to the left off-screen, not the right as it should be (and vice versa).
