Black screen on boot. FailsafeX: "Screen not found"
- by Lindhe94
I made a regular update using update center yesterday on My Samsung NP730U3E with Ubuntu gnome 13.10 and today it won't start. Or rather: it just gives me a black screen. On start up I get to enter my encryption password and everything seems fine. But after the encryption password is accepted it just blanks out.
When I boot into recovery mode and try to boot failsafeX it returns "Fatal server error: (EE) no screens found (EE)"
After booting into recovery mode and "Resume normal boot" I get to the tty1 prompt. If I head over to "tty7", where the graphical things usually are going on I just see this (and it's frozen):
What to do?
