If you are updating a headless pi, like over ssh, I recommend starting screen first in case your network session is interrupted

I had to hard reboot again by switching my Pi off to find my ArgonOne drive and Bluetooth.

Is the "full upgrade" necessary?
I usually just type "sudo upgrade". Works great

[IgmuHammerer]

Shouldn't I use autoclean and autoremove after this?

[dhYT]

I used this before I found this video:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
Does it work too?

I have some problem, Actually I have Raspberry Pi 4B (4 GB) board and I have a VGA monitor which has resolution around 1336*756. I purchased a micro hdmi to hdmi adapter and a hdmi to VGA adapter now after using for about 4 to 6 months it is not showing display now with the letest update of raspberry Pi OS.

It might be the fault of my adapter but it work well when I buy it, I just change some commands in config.txt file and it woke smoothly but now any change in the config file don't make any sense for it because everything is overlayed.

I don't know what to do I searched a lot but can you please give me legit solution of using a VGA monitor with raspberry Pi 4 B without any issues.

Thanks
