Unable to boot into my manjaro

[Name1]

Hello world!

So, I’ve been using manjaro for more than a month and I never had a problem. But yesterday, I tryed to boot and I couldn’t.
I have a dual boot with windows 10 pro.
The exact problem is that when I select to boot from manjaro, it shows the usual terminal screen and then it should let me put my password and log in. But instead, what hapens is that, it shows the usual screen and then there’s an entier black screen except for an underscore on the top left blinking. And it never gets to the log in page. What should I do?
I read that some people has this problem because they installed something or updated something, I don’t remember doing so.

What do you think it’s going on? What sould I do?

Thank you!

[HowTo] Resolve an unbootable Manjaro (black screen, login failed, cant boot, etc)

When we have problems gaining access to our systems it is difficult to gather information, let alone fix any problems. Here we will cover common causes and solutions to ‘manjaro wont boot’. TTY If your desktop does not load properly then you might still be able to use most, if not all, functionality by dropping to a non-graphical TTY. By default your system will have multiple TTYs, with each corresponding to an Fx key. Your desktop is assigned to one as well - most often F1. You can chang…

What should I do?

Give as information

1. Change to a tty: CTRL+ALT+F3
2. login
3. type inxi -Fazy | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st
4. type journcalctl -b0 | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st
5. type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st
6. post at least the links here.

That would be far more helpful.

Have you recently updated your kernel to an unstable one I got the same problem when I did that

Thanks for the contributions!

So, I followed the first link @cscs and I got to the terminal, I updated mirrors and Syyu. I installed again nvidia drivers. But nothing improved.

I tryed manjaro-chroot -a but the command was not found.

Now I’m going to try what @megavolt said.

Thanks!

No, I didn’t.

@megavolt

post at least the links here

For the first two, I got:
-bash: inix: command not found
https:// 0x0.st/-k.txt

For the third one:
https:// 0x0.st/i5n6.json

I couldn’t include links, so there’s a space between "https:// " and the rest of the link.

Thanks!

-bash: inix: command not found

@megavolt

type inxi -Fazy | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st

@megavolt

type inxi -Fazy | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st

About the journcalctl -b0 | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st
it says:
-bash: journcalctl: command not found

I searched it on the internet and it’s probably “journalctl” not “journcalctl”, I got this link:

Nvidia driver has not been found:

nov 21 12:21:38 DSKTP-MNJR-JRDN systemd-modules-load[336]: Failed to find module 'nvidia'
nov 21 12:21:38 DSKTP-MNJR-JRDN systemd-modules-load[336]: Failed to find module 'nvidia-drm'

Same here:

Graphics:

  alternate: nouveau bus ID: 2b:00.0 chip ID: 10de:21c4 
  Display: server: X.org 1.20.9 driver: N/A note: display driver n/a 
  FAILED: nvidia tty: 128x48 
  Message: Advanced graphics data unavailable in console. Try -G --display 

Kernel 5.9 does not support 440xx.

pacman -Sg linux59-extramodules | grep nvidia
linux59-extramodules linux59-nvidia-390xx
linux59-extramodules linux59-nvidia-450xx
linux59-extramodules linux59-nvidia-455xx

System:
  Kernel: 5.9.8-2-MANJARO x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 10.2.0 
  parameters: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.9-x86_64

  security=apparmor udev.log_priority=3 3 
  Console: tty 3 DM: LightDM 1.30.0 Distro: Manjaro Linux 

Solution here:

Cannot boot after update, previous kernels do not load

Normally you can install it with: sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-455xx That should add the extra modules for nvidia. If it is installed, then remove it and reinstall it: sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia-455xx sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-455xx Do this by booting a manjaro live disk and manjaro-chroot -a in a terminal if no tty is available.

Thanks! I could solve it by following the link you shared. Do you know why this happened or how can I prevent this to happen again?

Thank you very much!

Before upgrading the Kernel, check which nvidia driver versions are supported. The nvidia driver is optional and therefore you need to check it yourself.
