I could also use one partition on the Lenovo R60e to install a newer

now, and no update to it for years. What a mess. I delayed too long.
I think your problem is the GMA 950 old Intel video. Support problems
with newer kernels. You can try editing the boot parameter in grub and add
i915.lvds_use_ssc=0
supposed to fix it.
I wondered about the graphics sys in this thing, so will try it. Been
a while since I edited GRUB. Carefully!
But you do have really old hardware. A newer T430 are going for @
$100-$150 comes with a 3-4 gen i5. I have a L530 I bought a few years
ago $200 running 18.04 no problems.
I am looking for a newer machine, just not up to date on which is
best, and overloaded with other matters.
I have an ASUS desktop with 4GB RAM and an inbuilt Intel Graphics, I am very
happy with it......
Thanks!

If A equals success, then the formula is A = X + Y + Z.
X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.
