Blank screen after splash screen

#1 Post by J Arun Mani »

Hi.
Im using Debian 10 Buster GNOME Editon. Yesterday I met with this issue. After I boot Debian, the splash screen comes correctly, but after that it simply gets stuck (ie becones a still image) and after few minutes cursor appears at bottom. Then after few minutes the screen goes black. Thats it.

What could be the issue? Is it any memory issue or graphics related??

(Windows works fine tho)...

Do you mean the plymouth splashscreen? If so, please boot again and press HOME so you see what is happening with the kernel. Copy paste here the error message. Pressing HOME allows you to disable the splash and show the kernel messages. It could be some inode garbage on your home partition due to improper shutdown. Also try to boot with kernel recovery mode and report back.
