From Ben's comment and looking at the log I'm thinking it's got
something to do with left over nVidia stuff. I should be able to do
something to clear that out and go with the Nouveau driver, right?
I followed instructions at:
https://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/disable-remove-nvidia-drivers-on-ubuntu/
where I verified that there were a bunch of nVidia files on the machine,
ran:
sudo apt remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop
echo 'nouveau' | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Then I rebooted and the machine is now working as expected.
The odd thing to me is that all I did was disconnect stuff and reconnect
stuff. I suppose that will go in the bucket of unexplained stuff.
Anyway, thank you, Bill, and Ben, for your advice.
