    I had a similar issue a few years back and I fixed it by entering TTY2 by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2 and figuring out what broke via the terminal. My issue was that xorg couldn’t start because some dependencies broke after installing an update.









  • My first distro was Ubuntu and I’ve been very happy with it. Many hate it for being bloated or because of the snap package manager, but in my uninformed opinion I think it’s a solid choice for beginners, since everything is already set up and ready to go. On my laptop I’m trying out NixOS, but I’m having more trouble setting that up and it’s better for advanced users, I believe. Many also recommended Linux Mint, which is also good for beginners, but doesn’t have the snap package manager like ubuntu does.
