After the latest update, I’ve been having to roll back snapshots every time I boot my PC because it will boot to a black screen with nothing but the cursor. It does appear as though programs may be loading when this happens as the mouse cursor will change as if to interact with them while it’s on the black screen, but I can’t see any of what it is actually doing, cannot even open konsole while this is happening.
I am suspecting this is a nvidia issue revolving around their drivers, as I am not seeing any posts from AMD users about this issue. That or I am just blind…
