I (like a fool) went ahead and installed mate 20.10 over my working copy of 20.04.1on my Thinkpad p52 - bad idea. At first it wouldn't get past grub, then when booting in safe mode I managed to get it running using the Intel graphics chip (NVIDIA is a Quadra P2000).
There are issues with NVIDIA drivers (450 is where I need to be ISTR).
I wiped the drive and am going back to 20.04 until this thing settles down.
At least ZFS worked enough to let me check it out. The current ZFS seems to work ok.
20.10 works on VMware Fusion - no issues - so I suspect the main issue is NVIDIA and the certificates and driver levels.

I went back too. A little quirky ( buggy ) for me.
