From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes, exactly, but with no green but white instead (even worse contrast).
I read the link now:
"
I managed to solve the problem, I had to set the monitor calibration in Settings/Color and set sRGB as default for both monitors."
Will not work for me as I cannot see a think w/ white on yellow. The power-down button was puré luck.
Also, this us a laptop monitor, no #display buttons, etc.
IMO sth. would..

...need to be reset in the BIOS, though what, no idea whatsoever.
@HistoPol
OK. You still have your windows working as it was?
With liveUSB nothing should happen but good practice always says to make backups.
There are several LTS (long term support) that slightly overlap in years you can upgrade from one to the next.
You can try another distribution like #linuxmint Or #fedora .
This is what default Ubuntu looks like:

Thanks will look at this tomorrow.
No, the PC had (!) already not been working anymore b/c some smart-ass HP support technician thought it necessary to update the BIOS as a 1st step in finding about why the replaced battery did not work longer than only 45 min. Now, the PC doesn't find a bookable OS on the 2 upgrade SSD's anymore, that had been working nicely for several years. What he should...

...have done, is to check and reset the max #BatteryCapacity, a manager from a specialist battery company informed me recently. The content on the upgrade SSDs is still unchanged, though.
