I just installed Ubuntu 23.10 on a Laptop 13 with 13th Gen Intel.
I am a bit hesitant with the Ubuntu23.04-Manual-Setup-13thGen instructions since I don’t know to what extent is everything applicable to Ubuntu 23.10.
Thoughts?
And then of course, 24.04 is just around the corner.
Thanks
Welcome to the community!
We absolutely recommend using 22.04.4 LTS - it’s tested as officially supported and the kernel receives patches that will appear in 24.04.
My recommendation is:
22.04.4 (fully updated, using the guide and making sure all steps are followed.)
Once 24.04 lands, it will be seeing patches for the first few weeks. My advice is sit on the older LTS for at least two weeks after 24.04 lands.
23.10 has a super short shelf life left (July, very little value in installing it).
I see.
Well, at this point I might just as well stick with 23.10 until 24.04 lands.
While I appreciate your quick answer, my question is still not answered. I’m still hoping that someone else that installed 23.10 can answer.
What I’ve found so far:
Using the salt method broke my update capability - 23.10 isn’t supported by Salt either, and it leaves a file ( /etc/apt/sources.list.d/salt.list ) that points to nonexsistant repositories.

Delete the salt.list file, and you should get your updates back.
As far as the rest of the list of updates you pointed to, they seem OK - I suggest pasting them one at a time in (The commands between &&'s can all be pasted in one after the other) and making sure you don’t get any errors. I just did that list (Minus the ‘quiet splash’ because I like to see boot) and am going to reboot. I’ll let you know how it goes.
…and it doesn’t seem to have done any harm. Wifi still makes connection fine, hid_sensor_hub is listed as blacklisted in syslog. Not saying it’ll raise the dead or anything, but it doesn’t seem to hurt.
