Hello i am linux noob here, need some help my laptop refuse to switch/boot to my dGPU nvidia gf 820m with 390.154.2 driver on linux kernal 6.0.
It stuck on loading graphical interface boot.
but on linux kernal LTS 5.15 is fine.

OK, your card id is 1140 which is not supported by 470 series, but the 390 series. I searched only with 820M, it showed 470 series, but the card id was different.
That’s why it is so important to have enough details available, like the output of
inxi -Gzxx
Not sure, but maybe kernel 6.x does not, either temporarily or permanently, support your card. So it is possible that a future kernel 6 update fixes this.
Good to have the LTS kernel available.
EDIT: one idea is to try the open source nouveau driver instead of the Nvidia driver.
