Sadly I can't edit my original post, so here is the edited one:
@mods please delete my previous post
For all other people with the same problem:
I had the same issue on a super cheap Notebook with an onboard GPU.
What fixed it for me was making sure to boot into kernel:current/latest instead of LTS.
Somehow my Solus booted into LTS altough I initially configured it to boot into current.
Also my Harddrive is encrypted by luks.
What fixed the issue for me:
- plug in USB QWERTZ keyboard, as I changed my Notebooks visual keyboard layout to NEO2
- ctrl+alt+(fn)+2
- try fix the system over terminal by gathering information (like which kernel is booted,...) and setting clr to kernel:current
sudo clr-boot-manager list-kernels
- or
uname -r
- the kernel maked with a * is the one you are booted into.
bonus: quickfix!
- press spacebar during boot multiple times until you are able to select a kernel/solus version
- select latest or current and boot
- once your solus loads up correctly, fix you clr booting default.
For this thread starter:
You however have somehow a different problem!
Usually if you upgrade your GPU drivers they only work with the latest kernel.
So make sure to boot into the most recent Kernel.
If this is not working or solving your issue try the following command and post the output:
eopkg li | grep nvidia-
additionally you may want to run those very basic commands (if you haven't already)
sudo usysconf run -f
sudo eopkg rdb
sudo eopkg up
Let me know how it goes.
