Video is unresponsive once startup is complete - AgentKerbal - 08-27-2021
Hello there. I added a file to my X11 config so it would minimize screen tear on intel graphics. I went away for a few hours then came back to boot up the system. Everything went fine, up until the very last moment when I heard the oh-so pleasant sound of the Linux Lite startup but without any indication I had made it to my desktop. In fact, I was still stuck on the "ASUS" loading screen (normally my computer does "ASUS", *standard LL loading* and finally "ASUS" again before showing the desktop; in this case i'm stuck on the very last "ASUS" screen).
So I removed the added file with a live session, no changes. I played around with the recovery mode, and reinstalled my nvidia drivers (btw they're not the open source ones).
TL;DR - My system loads until the very last moment when video freezes but I can still hear the startup sound. Tried messing around with recovery and drivers, nada. Any help is appreciated
And for the curious ones this was the file I added and then removed to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel-graphics.conf
Code:
Section "Module"
Load "dri3"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
# Required by Google Earth, other modern GL apps:
Option "DRI" "3"
# Fixes screen tearing:
Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
Option "TearFree" "true"
