I have a 32-bit Asus laptop with an i386 processor. I had installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS then I upgraded/updated it to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. After updating it to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS the desktop was not showing anything; like it was not showing taskbar, etc., it was just blank and I was not able to open any application.

I entered the command to update then it said 846 packages remaining to upgrade so I tried upgrading, and it shows it found Broken packages. How can I overcome such a problem?

When I rebooted the system it showed 16.04 LTS Ubuntu but when i opened tty terminal using command Ctrl+Alt+f1 there it showed ubuntu 18.04 Lts. What's the issue?

Usually sudo apt --fix-broken install should fix it.
