Thanks.  I am using the Flatpak ver 3.10.12 out of the LM Software Manager.  I've been using it for quite a while and it works great.  The problem is, my Update Manager keeps upgrading QGIS (most recently to 3.16), but I cannot find it or run it.  You can read the details here:

Thanks so much. '/etc/upstream-release/lsb-release' contains: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04 LTS" So that sure does answer #2 - at least the Ubuntu part of it. System Info lists OS: "Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon".  Sure wish they
