New Lenovo laptop ships with non-upgradeable Ubuntu 22.04

Just received a brand new Lenovo laptop ordered with Ubuntu installed. I assumed it would be the latest but it isn't. It's 22.04. I tried to upgrade it via the command line but was stopped by $ sudo do-release-upgrade [sudo] password for scohen: Checking for a new Ubuntu release In /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades Prompt is set to never so upgrading is not possible. I edited the file to set it to "normal" and then it tried to do the upgrade but it failed quickly. Error during update A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of network problem, please check your network connection and retry.

Restoring original system state Aborting Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done It looks like Lenovo has added some libraries to its repository that make upgrades fail if installing from the main canonical repository, since they aren't present there. I have no idea how many other such issues there are, this may just be the first one of many that will hit. I've found through research that the jiay1 in the above error message is some sort of video driver for Minecraft, something that is of zero interest to me. But I don't know what else might break with a reimage. I am waiting for a return call from Lenovo to explain this situation to me. I am considering returning this laptop to them. I really will not abide a non-upgradable system, not at the price I paid. What remedies may there be for this situation, which prior to today I had not known existed? I can try a boot from an ISO image on a USB drive, for testing purposes, but really? Is this a thing now? If jiay1 is the only issue (and how can I determine that?), how would I go about removing it from what needed to be upgraded? Interested in any feedback.
