Here a list of problems I encountered in Linux and how I was able to fix them.

Installations

This is an error that appeared when updating to a new Ubuntu distribution. Error msg: Software Updater - Not all updates can be installed.
Solution: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Terminal is not opening after installing a new Python version

If you installed a new Python version without the use of conda, there might be a mismatch in the python naming in a bin file.
If it's possible open terminal through vscode or use a virtual terminal (VT) with CTRL + ALT + F3 and run gnome-ternimal. Does it throw a Python error? If yes run sudo nano /usr/bin/gnome-terminal and change #!/usr/bin/python3 to #!/usr/bin/python3.10 if the version you're currently using is 3.10.
Exit the VT via CTRL + ALT + F2.
