   Nice to see the usual usenet courtesy!   
      
   I have run everything from Pi1 to Pi5,and although I setup a GUI, I   
   normally run them headless - ie XRDP if I want a GUI   
      
   I have always tried to use the latest distro - sometimes with a fresh   
   install, sometimes with (against advice usually) done an in place   
   upgrade - never with any unsolvable issues   
      
   For the Pi5, as Bookworm was a prerequisite, I did a fresh install on   
   one of my Pi4s - everything was documented. No problem, then used that   
   for the Pi5 when it arrived.   
      
   Seeing the level of the discussions here, I would recommend looking at   
   the Raspberry Pi forum - there are plenty of use who know what they are   
   doing, and advise the idiots   
      
   Here you seem to get the idiots advising. I rest my case, and will bow out.
