> Jonathan, does this imply that your older machine is running Ubuntu 16.04? The Gnucash wiki says that 16.04 had 2.6.12, while 18.04 had 2.6.19. The vintage of Ubuntu might affect your options here.

> As an alternative way to enter several transactions earlier than the current date and leave the cursor at the bottom, you could try filtering the current view of an account in the register so that only the most recent transactions are visible. That way, when you complete the historic transaction, it will be filtered out and the cursor will stay on a blank transaction at the bottom of the screen.
