I've been an ubuntu user for the last 5 years, I newly upgrade from 20.1 to 22.04 and my settings aren't working, I tried to install the gnome-control-center but the terminal reply me with the following:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libpython3.10 : Depends: libpython3.10-stdlib (= 3.10.4-3ubuntu0.1) but 3.10.5-1+focal1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

What can I do to make the settings work?

Probably this was due to a recent update. At least this was the problem for me.

The following procedure solved my issue:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-control-center

Then I restarted gnome-control and reopened the display with the following commands:

gnome-control-center display
gnome-control-center

I hope this helps.

For me, it was the power setting issue. I set it to the performance mode instead of Balanced or Power Saver.

Try changing by:

$ powerprofilesctl set balanced

Command gnome-control-center display at least showed me what was going on:

libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
libEGL fatal: DRI driver not from this Mesa build ('24.2.0-devel' vs '24.0.9-0ubuntu0.1')

So I solved this by upgrading Mesa drivers:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Several other apps were not opening either: e.g. Software & Updates.

You can solve this problem by reseting gnome in terminal:

dconf reset -f /org/gnome/
