System crashing before booting

My system is crashing before I boot after I had to do a hard reset pushing the power button on the laptop(pc froze because I was using the whole ram) , tried other snapshots on grub and the same thing happens.

When I try to boot with my discrete nvidia gpu, the system goes until sddm and freeze before I can finish typing my password.

When i use the hybrid option, first he went to sddm and I could type it, but when I finished and pressed enter the screen got black, I could move my mouse, but was stuck there, and after a short while it went back to sddm. After it, I rebooted and not even to sddm its getting.

I was able to go into to secure mode and save the warnings into a text, im not very versed so if anyone could help me:

nobody ? :sob:

Secure boot enabled?
Do you have added the Nvidia key to the blue mok on reboot?

There are some messages…

not enabled, i have not changed any boot parameters

‘Do you have added the Nvidia key to the blue mok on reboot?’

not sure what this is, its a 6 months old system tho, working fine until yesterday until the hard reset, i only update on mondays

update: i was able to go into a snap with different kernel, was able o login, and go to the desktop, run snapper rollback in terminal, rebooted, but in the login screen it froze again, it makes no sense, im lost

I was able to login and I am using the system right now, restoring a snapshot with kernel 6.11.0-1 and enabling Hybrid Graphics in the BIOS, dont know if I should update the system or not

You can wait for a bit, but in the end you’ll have to.

should I update excluding the kernel ? Or if I corrupted the nvidia driver forcing shutdown or something, when I update now, would it fix it ?

If you were able to boot a prior kernel and run normally, rolling back to a snapshot was overkill, as you could simply keep using the older kernel, remove the newer, and hope the next is better, without worry about losing the working one.

I believe I corrupted something in the nvidia driver with my forced shutdown, I would like to unninstall him and reinstall it again befode I do a dup, how should i proceed, command wise ?

How to uninstall depends on how you installed. Installation should have been accompanied by instructions that include uninstallation instructions. Details I cannot provide because I never use NVidia’s proprietary drivers. I have no reason to know any of the details of what’s in them. SDB:NVIDIA drivers - openSUSE Wiki may have all you need to know.
