Black screen with cursor after installing NVIDIA proprietary drivers

Hi, i had a simaler problem. But I fixed it.
Mayber my thread will help you (see link).

Short answer:
at my system it was about all about the nvedia driver that wouldnt work with the intel drivers.
(i know you have an amd system, but maybe it’s the same solution (?))

In the end i had to take “ibt=off”. (search it on the search engine of your choice)
It will stop some boot option that will the system make more secure. (i am not an it expert)

How do you get there? (aks ChatGPT for a more detailed answer)

open
root/etc/default/grub

in the grub data you look for

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=…

and ad ibt=off

at the end it should look like this

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet splash resume=UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx resume_offset=xxxx ibt=off”

save the grub data

than go the command line and write

sudo update-grub

it should update the real grub

restart your computer

everything should work fine

(hope i could help)
(for myself i cant find any option to save my data on my computer, so i hat to start from the bottom :confused: )

best regard from germany
