I will get to this good advice as soon as I'm done with my current problem. I was doing a lot of reading on the Qubes-users group and also through the Qubes docs site, and I decided to update my kernel in dom0 using the sudo qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest console command. I did this for several reasons, including the fact that I have no sound. While the update was successful, when I restarted the computer, there were several problems. 1) The HDD decrypt password is invisible. It's just a blank screen until you type something, and then it shows a text based prompt for the password. 2) There are huge graphical artifacts in the user password prompt screen. 3) After a successful password entry in the user password prompt screen, it briefly boots into the Qubes desktop and then immediately goes back to the password prompt. It does this repeatedly, with no escape. If you enter the wrong password, it functions correctly and tells you that it is the incorrect password. I am hoping there is troubleshooting that I can do to change my boot options, or that somebody else has faced this problem as well. Otherwise I will want to roll back the kernel, but I hope that I don't have to. Here are my computer specifications: Mobo: Asus Sabertooth x79 CPU: Intel i7 3930k 6 core @ 3.2ghz RAM: G-skill Ripjaws 4gb x 8 sticks in quad-channel, XMP profile @ 3.2 ghz (I believe) GPU1: AMD RX 580 8gb [XFX brand] GPU2: AMD RX 460 4gb [XFX brand] Boot HDD: Seagate 2TB Firecuda hybrid drive. Other HDDs: 1TB Toshiba OCZ SATA SSD. 3TB Toshiba Sata HDD. Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
