upgrading to 22.04 kills firefox

[Bmarsh]

It might help if you explained more about your environment.  Installing kubuntu can be very easy using normal types of hardware and networking but you seem to be taking some weird approaches. Not to rub salt, but today disc storage is cheap and should make things easy.  As an example, I have a 1tb drive on my computer and when I go to a new install, 1) NEW partitions for the new install, and leave the old system partitions untouched.  2) install the new system and if all goes well, move to it. If something goes wrong, I can still boot the old system.  No live CDs, no special procedures needed.  And the new install will ask my router (which is also a Linux box) for a dhcp ip  address  and be connected during and after the install.    So what's your hardware and network connection look like?

 checked it out but it seems a little like I would need some hand holding 
 the first time I used it.
   I am getting to the point of frustration. 20.04 worded fine and in fact 
 am running the 20.04 live CD currently with no problems.
   so unless I findd the solution in a day or two I am going to just call 
 it a "fail" and revert to Kubuntu 20.04 and just use it for now until 
 maybe 24.04 comes out and hopefully works better.
 thanks for all the help
