Everytime I boot computer I need to use recovery mode

[crinlorite]

Hello, this' not my first time in Ubuntu, it's a comeback, everything I wanted to make work in Ubuntu is working, my favorite game, my favorite android emulator, my favorite streaming client, but something's amiss, every time I boot the computer I need to use the recovery mode and click on resume, if I try to boot it normal this happens:

Then the screen turns black and monitor goes to sleep mode. Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

It's not my first time in Ubuntu but I've never been an experienced user.

How could I check those logs?

I'll upload the google photos video on YouTube asap.

What video card/chip?

Often from installing nVidia driver from nVidia, not from Ubuntu repository. You have to reinstall into every new kernel if you install directly from nVidia with .run file.

Often from installing nVidia driver from nVidia, not from Ubuntu repository. You have to reinstall into every new kernel if you install directly from nVidia with .run file.

That won't happen if you do this first:

sudo apt install dkms

. DKMS, Dynamic Kernel Module Support, will link a new kernel to the nVidia driver.

The best way to install nVidia drivers is this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-410

Reboot, and you're all set.

This does assume that you have an nVidia card or chip.
