| Can I transfer my customizations from LL3.8 to LL5.2 |

I have been using LL3.8 on a VM for a couple of years, but with EOL coming up, I want to move to LL5.2.
How can I transfer the following customisation/configuration:
1. Initial boot screen (Gradient Gold with a LL Feather) ... It seems to have disappeared in LL4/5.
2. Greeter window background colour
3. Desktop background set to solid colour
4. Task bar, Change colour and panel setup
Is it possible to just copy some configuration files/directories? If so, how do I find out what I need to copy?

Today, upon rebooting after an update, Linux Lite informed me that there were no network devices available.
Rebooting into Linux 5.4 solved that problem.
Are there any known issues with Linux 5.8?
Not really sure where to put questions like this.
I probably should have put it in the Bugs forum?
Because it is a bug.
Windows works, of course, so it must be something related to kernels and drivers and services/daemons.
Would be interesting to see if this affects others, and not just me (which would be typical) 
EDIT:
The device is a bog-standard Realtek RTL8111 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller, integrated into my motherboard. My machine is a stationary PC, no wifi, and relatively recent.
I don't mind booting into 5.4, but I hope this gets fixed in 5.8.
Here is the output of :
Code: *-network

resources: irq:33 ioport:f000(size=256) memory:fd504000-fd504fff memory:fd500000-fd503fff
EDIT_AGAIN:
According to this topic https://askubuntu.com/questions/1291313/...26-generic there was some work done that could cause problems with devices.
And another topic also suggests installing the linux-generic package - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1307447/...untu-20-04 - but it is already installed, although I noticed that the package depends on Linux 5.4 and not 5.8. I am not sure if that's a problem.
I will run the lshw command on my failed login, but it says UNCLAIMED for the device:
Code: *-network UNCLAIMED
description: Ethernet controller
product: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller

configuration: latency=0
resources: ioport:f000(size=256) memory:fd504000-fd504fff memory:fd500000-fd503fff
I then went to reinstall the linux-modules package for 5.8.0-38, and it complained that the corresponding linux-headers package for 5.8.0-38 wasn't installed, so I installed that and reinstalled. But the network card is still unclaimed on 5.8.0-38.
I am now going to boot into Windows and get work done, but it would be nice to see an update soon so that I can enjoy Linux
EDIT with the solution :
I ran Code: sudo apt clean && sudo apt install --reinstall linux-modules-extra-5.8.0-38-generic
I have no idea if I had the modules-extra package installed, but it worked. (Or maybe threatening to boot into Windows worked? :p )
So, this is not a fault of my own, but a glitch in the update procedure. My Linux Lite installation is only a couple of months old, so I am not to blame for this.
I hope that this information will be useful for someone else experiencing the problem.

I was following the instruction to install a Brother printer MFC-L6510DW on my Linux Lite, but when I get to the 2nd step that is go to "super user" (su) or (sudo su) I get the message Authentication Failure when I put the password, and I only have one password for that OS. What am I missing or do wrong? why do I get that message? I can't complete the installation because of that. Would somebody help me?

Dear forum,
I have trouble running the updater, and as I've checked the sticky on the subject it seems a common enough issue. Even though I managed to cut the error log down with about 2/3 by unchecking (all) other software in repository preferences, I'm still stuck with a few:
This is the log from the updater:
============ Log ===========
Hit:1 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security InRelease
Hit:2 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal InRelease
Get:3 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease [114 kB]
Get:4 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease [101 kB]
Reading package lists...
E: Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'focal' to 'focal-updates'
E: Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'focal-updates' to 'focal-backports'
E: Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease' changed its default priority for apt_preferences(5) from 500 to 100.
And this is the log from synaptic:
Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'focal' to 'focal-updates'This must be accepted explicitly before updates for this repository can be applied. See apt-secure( 8 ) manpage for details.Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'focal-updates' to 'focal-backports'Repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease' changed its default priority for apt_preferences(5) from 500 to 100.
It suggests looking at apt-secure( 8 ) manpage which I did, but that was a bit beyond my skills... Anyone have an idea?
