Ps: used Google lens to get code from screen. 8 and 0 can be misplaced. So code can be misspelled
I select Garuda from grub bootloader. And come to a grey screen. No login screen, just grey.
What I’ve done. Ctrl + alt+ f2
Tried to update. Error when trying to update
Checked timeshift backups. The one from yesterday is also broken. But not the one from last week. I think and remember that I was messing around trying to enable freesync. About 3 days ago by making a 20-amdgpu.conf file. And yesterday I edited that file for some reason. I changed the identifier because I thought it didn’t do anything important (I was wrong).
I searched the Garuda wiki and found this link:
Did first thing to try in tty but it just ends in errors.
sudo reflector -a6 -f5 --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
sudo pacman -Syyu
This gives me:
error: failed to retrieve mirrorstatus data: URLError: <urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known>
The second thing to try is to run:
startx
This gives me:

The thing that caught my eye was:
Parse error on line 1 of section Device-1 in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-anmgpu.conf "Device-1" is not a valid section name.
So my theory is true. I believe this is (or one of) the things that caused the grey screen problem. But I don’t know how to fix this
So I now ask you guys for help. How do you fix this. How can I edit the file from tty
