Today I started my computer (RYZEN 5 3600, RTX 260 super, 16 gb ram, Linux Mint 22.) and after a few seconds my computer freezes and stays that way. I don't know what happened. The grubon moves on. I can't do anything, whatever mode or software rendering I start it in, it always freezes. I think I have
#System freezing
void kindle
Where exactly does it freeze?
stable moth
So. I didn't do anything with it yesterday. Today I started it, started it up, and after 5-10 seconds it froze. Now I moved it to an older kernel (in grub) and write about it. I don't understand why the newer kernel does this (I tried 3, now only the oldest one will start) what can I do?
void kindle
From the system info, it doesn't seem you have driver installed for gpu?
void kindle
Can you show outut of inxi -G in the terminal?

hm this is not good, i'm useing mesa now
void kindle
It freezes 5 - 10 seconds after login on newest kernel, did I get it right?

Yes. I am now on the old kernel, as you can see in the info. I played yesterday, I was sure the Nvidia Driver was up
void kindle
Ok, let's try cleaning up and reinstalling the driver: In the terminal, use those commands in order.
Sudo apt update
sudo apt purge ^nvidia*
sudo apt autopurge
sudo ubuntu-drivers install
void kindle
If everything completed without errors, yes.
