[SOLVED] Graphics does not come up after Ceres update/upgrade.

After todays update/upgrade of my Ceres setup the gui login page (SLiM) does not come up.Just the recovery console.
The upgrade list was huge... I did not save it, sorry. I do remember there were some Mesa upgrades.

After login to my user account and "X' command:

"nomodeset" kind of helps. Slim shows up as usual but I get all windows without window frames (xfwm4 instant crash and core dump) and some other numerous issues...

Any thoughts?

+ Actually I can show the upgrade history if its needed.
+ Adding "mate-desktop-environment" did resolve windows usabilty problem still I have to use "nomodeset".

Switched to excalibur and downgraded Mesa 23.2.0RC3 -> 23.1.7. Bunch of the installed apps were removed along with it. Now it seems to be work fine. I will be checking the release number of Mesa next time before installing any updates. RCs are not so good I guess.

Just a little add up.
Today I had tripped just the same way again! 🤡
I tried to run an old OpenGL i386 game. The console thrown an error like “libgl.so.1 not found”. Not a big deal, I thought (my brain definitely was hanged up at that moment), and thrown back the “sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1:i386”. After that, the game performed fine, and then I thought about apt's recommendation to reboot… And guess what… 🤦 I literally had upgraded back to broken Mesa 23.2.0RC3-3 which is today on the Excalibur! The 23.1.7 is no longer available…
Having in mind that the Ceres has got 23.2.0RC4-1 today, I thought it's worth of a try, switched back to it and upgraded. But no luck so far. Still nothing but the recovery console.
What did save the situation? I had built Mesa from the source. Acknowledgments to the great Mesa folks! I am using 23.2.1, and it works like a charm.
