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.

    One would think this issue of display settings would be resolved in 2023. I confirm that the reinstallation of the gnome-control-center did the trick. – Lutz Filor Mar 20 '23 at 22:58

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
