Hello im new to EOS after using Manjaro for a couple of months as my first Linux distro.
I did a whole batch of updates yesterday before going to bed and today the system wont start anymore.
I get stuck in the [ok] screen either at “Reached target Graphical Interface” or “Starting Accounts Service”
Using Intel 8700k cpu and Nvidia RTX 2070super GPU
DE is Xfce.
Any suggestions? Is it the GPU driver?
i tried getting to start it with sddm instead of lightdm, which didnt do the trick.
So i tried startx and it returns the errors:
-no screens found
-he log file at “/var/log/Xorg.0.log” for additional information
-Servernterminated with error (1). Closing log file
Maybe it failed updating the kernel properly? You could chroot in a live iso and see if you can run an update again.
i think something with the xorg.conf broke. Arch wiki says there is a possible fuckup by Xserver and nvidia driver when updating kernel, and it really seems like it.
I just saved me the hassle, saved my data via another distro on the other drive and reinstalled EOS…
Ha, fair enough. Was it related to the nouveau driver issues?
yep i think so.
