I turned on my PC this morning and had no video. The screen is just blank, I don't see grub come up, and nothing on the login prompt. I CAN ssh into it and that works. I can also reboot it into windows from ssh and windows comes up no problem. I tried reverting to an older nvidia driver version that I know worked, but same problem. I dont remember updating anything before I shut down last night, but maybe I did? I'm kind of at a loss right now.
