Good morning, after attempting the recent update after a reboot I get the log-in screen, but once logged in I am getting a black screen with what looks like a low resolution.
I say this because I can see the cursor which is huge and fuzzy and if I hit the f7 button on my keyboard window switcher appears briefly but besides that it’s a black screen.
I’m not sure if this is relevant but I do get this prompt from the update:
:: There are 2 providers available for qt6-multimedia-backend:
:: Repository extra
1) qt6-multimedia-ffmpeg 2) qt6-multimedia-gstreamer
Enter a number (default=1): 1
:: There are 2 providers available for qt6-python-bindings:
:: Repository extra
1) pyside6 2) python-pyqt6
Enter a number (default=1):
I have tried 1 and 2 for both options but get the same result so I don’t think it’s related but wanted to point it out.
Has anyone else had this experience?
