victorgonal Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hi everyone, Long time lurker (asides from software programmer, web programmer and whenever I've some time, avid reader). I just re-installed after a long time Kali into my XPS15, and now I get a black screen after login, no matter what X I choose, Gnome, Classic or X11 Default. Any ideas on what may be happening or how to fix it (I know it most probably is the drivers, but how to verify it?) Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Probably needs the nvidia drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Read the journal and dmesg. dmesg journalctl -xe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victorgonal Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Fixed it finally by setting up nomodeset quiet splash, which removes the flickering and blurring of fonts and so on. Thanks for the tips anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
