Hi! Did you try to boot with previous kernel? I find very likely there lies your problem. Just pick another kernel from the list in GRUB and see what happens. Also, you can try booting a live pendrive/DVD to see if there's any hardware issue. Cheers, Sylvia -- users mailing list

You could try booting into multi-user.target instead of graphical.target and see if that helps since it doesn't appear to be releated to which kernel you boot. Add "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" to your kernel options or perhaps the traditional "3" on the end still works? Thanks, Richard --
