No. This morning I was using ENU-2 as my main desktop machine. After 
lunch I shut down both ENU-2 and ENU-1 and swapped boxes. All the 
peripherals stayed where they were. Both machines have a keyboard, 
mouse, speakers, and two monitors. So all the stuff that had been on 
ENU-2 are now connected to ENU-1, and vice versa. ENU-1 is up and 
running Xubuntu 20.04, mostly as I expect it to. ENU-2, not so much.

Yes, ctrl-alt-F1 does give me a real text login screen, after the 
Xubuntu splash screen goes away. I am able to login there. I'm told that 
there are 7 packages that can be uploaded. apt list --upgradable tells 
me one is a gnome-sudoku, and the other 6 are bionic-security upgrades.
