This happened after i locked out my pc (like sleep mode but doesn’t sleep, it just locks the screen asking for a password) and leaved it for a couple of hours on. When i returned i rebooted it because i couldn’t even write the password in the box in order to unlock the screen and this happened. It stays like this and does nothing, i could wait hours and expect nothing to happen. How can i fix this? Thank you
‘CTRL + ALT + F1’ should open up TTY1 (terminal). You can use this to find the issue.
I believe the desktop manager runs on TTY7 (F7, instead of F1 above) and you can try that to see if you can get to the desktop environment.
My best guess is probably something is wrong with the graphic drivers. If you are using an Nvidia card, you need to make sure that the Nvidia drivers are installed and that you are on X11 and not Wayland.
Yes i am on X11 and i recently installed the nvidia drivers… Btw what do i do after logging in TTY7? Reboot?
It’s more so a way to access your system to try and diagnose issues. Try all TTYs first. One of them should give you a GUI, if not it means there’s probably something with the desktop environment
What do you mean by gui? I tried all of them btw and they work (except for the F7 which doesn’t do anything), i can get past the login and do commands. When i log in this error shows up that says:
`Last login…

When i do
sudo apt updateorsudo apt-get updateit gives me only errors
