It's more an assumption as I don't know how to check them, and wouldn't know what to do if they are wrong.

Fair enough. I thought it autocompleted based on the filenames of a local directory I was in.In short I type up to 'image-' and press TAB and get no autocomplete, nor when I TAB twice. I'm guessing I need to be in a particular directory to execute this command?How are you going to be "in" the right directory of the remote server servicing your apt install requests? It's not a local resource you're doing path-completion on.
The fact that even with bash-completion installed you have as-yet-unspecified issues with installing kernels _and_ apt can't autocomplete valid candidate packages definitely points toward repository misconfigurations.You need to diagnose what's going on with your package sources by the looks of it. Check through sources.list and sources.list.d under /etc/apt and see what's going wrong. Did you install your Mint fresh or just upgrade in place from a previous version?
Clean install after formatting the partition... at least 19.1 was, I /think/ 19.2 and 19.3 updated via apt-get dist-upgrade.

Which is odd as I have 19.3 running. /etc/apt/sources.list.d has the following files nodesource.list deb https://deb.nodesource.com/node_12.x bionic main deb-src https://deb.nodesource.com/node_12.x bionic main nvidia-docker.list deb https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/ubuntu18.04/$(ARCH) / deb https://nvidia.github.io/nvidia-container-runtime/ubuntu18.04/$(ARCH) / deb https://nvidia.github.io/nvidia-docker/ubuntu18.04/$(ARCH) / official-package-repositories.listdeb http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/packages.linuxmint.com/packages tricia main upstream import backport
