    Question Ubuntu failing to boot

    Hello,

    Yesterday I rebooted my laptop and now it refuses to boot. I have an ASUS Vivobook with dual boot (Ubuntu 22/Windows 10; I rarely use the Windows partition). I've tried troubleshooting using recovery mode. I tried all of the options in the menu as well as updating all my packages, and reinstalling the desktop. This didn't fix it. Today I got a live USB and tried running fsck as well as boot-repair, but it still doesn't work. Here is the paste from boot-repair: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/drHMk67bFc/

    Here is a photo of what Ubuntu says when trying to boot:

    The '/dev/nvme0n1p4: ******/******** files. ********/********* blocks' message has appeared consistently. I'm not very fluent in troubleshooting, and I can't think of any more things to do. What can I do to recover?

    Re: Ubuntu failing to boot

    You are booting past grub, so Boot-Repair will not fix issue.
    What is in USB3 port 2?
    lsusb
    Lots of detail
    lsusb -vvv
    Or detail on one device using info from lsusb.
    Details on one port, first number is bus, second is device:
    lsusb -v -s 3:3

    Please do not post screen shots of terminal output.
    Copy & paste & use Code tags, easy to add with Go Advanced editor & # icon.
    If using Quick Reply then [CODE] at the beginning and [/CODE] at the end.

    I turn Bluetooth off on my system as I do not use it. So not familiar with issues.

    For anyone seeing this in the future, I fixed this by reinstalling and purging xorg. This fixed my booting issue. After that I had keyboard issues that I fixed with 'xorg :1 -configure'.
