The system automatically starts x11. When I try to switch to wayland, a black screen and mouse cursor appears.
After the last package update, when I try to re-enter wayland, a black screen appears with text that says the following:
The screen locker is broken and cannot be used to unlock the screen. Switch to virtual terminal to unlock the screen.
But now when I press ctrl+alt+f2 nothing happens, just a black screen and that’s it. Previously, I was accessing the user login and password entry.
After several presses of ctrl+alt+f2 and waiting 10-15 seconds, the unlock screen appears, but for about a minute it won’t let me enter a password (no characters are entered).
After several switches to f3, f2 → I managed to enter the password and boot into the system interface. But no program can be started, not even terminal. The program windows are not displayed.
Switching to ctrl+alt+f2 is also impossible.
uname -r
6.13.4-1-default
The kernel parameters are set at boot time:
splash=silent quiet security=apparmor nvidia_drm.modeset=1 rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau
Tried using nvidia_drm.modeset=0, this did not help
By the way, there is such a message in the logs, why does it occur?
dmesg log:
