[SOLVED] HELP! Unable log to desktop after nvidia driver
Posted: Sep 18th, '21, 10:48Hi there,
I'm in big trouble! I wanted to install nvidia geforce driver (on my Mageia 8 machine, regularly updated, having a Gigabyte motherboard, and an AMD Ryzen processor), to get more features, but now I'm unable to log into any desktop environment or window manager.
Furthermore, on booting I get two errors:
I managed to un-install all nvidia related rpm's, and launched XFdrake to re-adjust the settings, to no avail, with as well as without those nvidia rpm's.
What should I do?! Is there an rpm that I should remove, too?! Is there a manual thing I should do?!
I desperately need your urgent help to regain my machine!!!
And a million thanks in advance for bearing with me...
