=======================================================================
I have had to uninstall Focal Fossa 20.04 (April 2020) and revert back
to Ubuntu 19.10 on my Lenovo T420s because the laptop was stuck on
purple screen upon `do-release-upgrade`
I used `nomodeset` to boot the machine but there are no drivers for
Lenovo T420s. Here is the result of `lshw -c video`
```

Has anyone tried to install Ubuntu 20.04 yet? If so, did you run into the above
issue?
