Can't boot into mint

[final dew]

it's just stuck on the logo and with the line on top (cuz of resolution changing i guess)

same was with mint iso, it booted up only in compatibility mode

[cursive hornet]

fresh install?

if u had to use compat. mode that already tells you hell awaits you in time.

[final dew]

yes it is

[cursive hornet]

are you using Ancient nvidia cards or extraordinarily new AMD/NVIDIA card?

[final dew]

rx9060xt

[cursive hornet]

forget it

use Endeavour OS.

[final dew]

so i cant use mint?

[cursive hornet]

check the threads here for that model. pretty sure they all say no or pure hell awaits you.

[fathom chasm]

If it's really the gpu, wouldn't nomodeset get him in?

[cursive hornet]

shrugs

[final dew]

wait

[fathom chasm]

@final dew can you get to the grub menu?

[final dew]

I can choose advanced options, then recovery mode

and in it click resume

and I'm in

[fathom chasm]

you're in where?

[cursive hornet]

recov. mode is read-only .

you could try the nomodeset boot as maniak mentioned, and then find out precisely how to install the mainline kernel and reboot to it, and pray it works and runs stably

[final dew]

in cinnamon de

[cursive hornet]

see #1429152383018991697 message Disregard that it says nvidia.

[fathom chasm]

See if you can get to the terminal and type

inxi -SGxxx

and show us the result

[fathom chasm]

please run

sudo apt udate && sudo apt upgrade -y

if you have internet connection

[cursive hornet]

it's read-only in recov. mode

[fathom chasm]

recovery mode doesn't get you to desktop, it gets you to root shell at best

[cursive hornet]

i've seen it go into desktop in one other case. couldnt update or install anything.

[cursive hornet]

thus ...

[fathom chasm]

Then, @final dew should report errors about read only stuff

[final dew]

it's installing SOME packages like 0.1 mb/s

[fathom chasm]

Open up another terminal and type

inxi -Nnxxx

[final dew]

done

[fathom chasm]

show the end of it please

[final dew]

I closed that terminal

the last lines was grubmkconfig

[fathom chasm]

run

sudo apt update

and show the result

[final dew]

all packages upgraded

[fathom chasm]

ok, restart normally, when you see mint logo press esc once

[final dew]

Just a black screen now

like no output

[fathom chasm]

See if you can get to grub menu, select mint 22 and press e

[cursive hornet]

.

do as it says there for safeboot.

[final dew]

done

I'm in cinnamon de, and I guess i don't have GPU driver because I cant change refresh rate and resolution

[cursive hornet]

yep

so now u gotta figure to get the Mainline kernel. www.kernel.org

if u wanna go thru all that

[final dew]

I guess no

[cursive hornet]

wait up

do inxi -M && mokutil --sb in terminal. type very exact.

[cursive hornet]

also open Update Manager, click its VIEW menu

check in there, linux kernels, see if there's 6.17 or higher than 6.14 series at all

[cursive hornet]

computer is too new

[final dew]

it says 'your system is up to date'

[final dew]

it's like 1-2 years old but have new GPU like 1 month ago

[cursive hornet]

ah and u updated teh BIOS a month ago, i see

[final dew]

yeah
