Yes, if your SrBase app needs glibc >2.34, you are going to have to change to Ubuntu 22.04 or 23.04 when it is released later this month.
Well I guess it's onto 22.04 until Linux Mint comes out with it's new release based on the latest Ubuntu release and see if it gets upgraded. Of course I could just put Windows on the pc but Linux is sooo much better on old pc's.
Thank you to all who replied, it's been a very big learning experience.
I think your message is from Skip, but I'm not sure.
As for what you and Keith said... ?????
Yes I tried to cut out the Skip stuff as Keith gave the command line stuff to solve a problem it seems alot of people are having with Linux Mint and versions 21 and up. If I had been thinking about the future at the time I would have loaded up Linux Mint 21.1 when he worked on an NVMe drive for me then I could have cloned it and been good to go for a long time but nooo I was obstinate and stuck with ver 20.3 and now it won't crunch the TF tasks from SrBase because they require a newer Glibc version that is apparently a MAJOR part of Linux Mint and changing it isn't as easy as 1-2-3.
I GOT IT WORKING!!!! It took some browsing to install the ppa from costamagnagianfranco/boinc and then some command line stuff from the Linux Mint forums:
sudo rm /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg
sudo usermod -a -G boinc $USER
exec su $USER
sudo systemctl restart boinc-client
After I installed Boinc and did a restart and then changed to the ver 5.25 built-in Nvidia drivers and a couple of restarts I ran the stuff above and got Boinc to come up, then I shut it down and copied the Project *.xml files to the /var/lib/boinc folder and then did another restart and a rerun of the final line above because Boinc wouldn't start, then I restarted the pc again and it's connecting to all my Projects and getting tasks just like it should.
YES I bookmarked the ppa page with the directions as well as the page with the directions above just in case. Now after running this pc for a few days I can clone it, it's only a 250gb ssd drive and I have a bunch of them already in my pc's, and I have a StarTech small box that will clone a drive from one to another with no pc needed, it's just a matter of changing pc names after that and I can do all my Linux boxes!!
Thank you EVERYONE who helped me get to where I am now, especially you Keith Myers and also your Teammates on the GPU Users Group as well for being very instrumental in making this all happen.

Keith Myers ONE of my pc's is running Linux Mint 20.3 AND successfully completing the SrBase TF tasks even though the Glibc stuff is too old...go figure!!
I have hit my goal at one project on a different pc so today should swap out Linux Mint for Ubuntu 22.04.06, the latest download, and see if I can crunch those same tasks on it.
My Mint 20.3 with the 5.15 kernel and libc 2.31 just successfully completed a TF task on the RX-580? It must have downloaded as a result of the "if there ain't anything I selected available send me what you got" setting. I'll have to go enable TF apps in home prefs.
UPDATE: A few TF 74 apps got validated but I had to abort a bunch when they went into "ever increasing time to complete" mode. In 30 secs they were at a day, in a minute 3 or more days, etc. etc. A couple had gotten to 300+ days to complete before I caught this. The ones that worked seemed to start out with about a 4 minute estimated time and sat at that until they went to completion.
