I've done the upgrade to Linux 5.8.0-21 and had all the old buggy
sympthoms. That all had been caused by the failing of the Virtualbox
Guest Additions installation for Linux 5.8.0-21 during the Linux
upgrade from 20 to 21. 
Everything was OK after:
- I installed "linux-headers-5.9.0-21-generic" using Synaptic and
- reinstalled the Virtualbox Guest Additions.
