I recently installed Ubuntu 20.04.03 on my PC. When I ran the installation, it worked well, initially. However, after I shut the computer off and turned it back on, I get the login screen, I typed my password and it hung on the purple screen. It is just a blank purple screen. I browsed the web and found that it could be the Nvidia driver causing this issue. For this reason, I removed my graphic card and ...

I've recently installed Ubuntu 21.10 onto my laptop and my desktop. I've been noticing a weird bug and I need to know if it's just me or not.

After booting( or recovery from hibernation) when I get to the login screen, and try to login into my account, the first login never succeeds. I put the password in correctly, hit login, and I get the spinning wheel thing for an extended period of time.

GUI seems to be partially working. I get a clock, accessibility and power settings, but rest of the screen is just solid purple colour, no user to select no field to enter my password so that I can actually login.

I have checked if I can get terminal access with ctrl + alt + F1-F8 but I had no luck with that.

I have tried also tried reinstalling gdm3 from root console in recovery mode, but that didn ...

I have this Ubuntu 20.04 VPS which was working fine an hour back, but now I am unable to login to my sudo user. The root login is also disabled.

Logins were fine until about 2 weeks ago, when I found that the boot would proceed apparently normally (with the BIOS a ...

I've been trying to boot ubuntu for a while but everytime I do, after entering the password it verifies me and then, all options on screen disappear and only the purple back ground remains, the only thing I could do is moving the mouse pointer.Does anybody know how should I login?enter image description here

Occasionally, when I try to sign in on Kubuntu 21.10, the login screen will no register keypresses or mouse clicks. I can still move the cursor around the screen, but cannot interact with the password entry field or any of the onscreen buttons, e.g. shut down or reboot. The only way to get logged in at this point is to use the computer's hardware power button to turn off the machine, then power it up ag ...

I upgraded my Ubuntu 21.04 to 21.10 yesterday and am running into serious problems after rebooting.

Troubles with graphical drivers (solved)

This is solved, but maybe I broke something by solving this problem ? Ubuntu stuck during boot and the desktop was never showing. I restarted in rescue mode, updated grub to add "nomodeset" and did some reinstallations + reconfigurations :

I installed Mate Desktop UI on my VM couple days ago. I didn't like it and I removed it, but the login screen doesn't seem to go away. I don't mind it, but now when I input the password, it doesn't log me in anymore. I even tried to go to console using Ctrl+Alt+F2 to reinstall ubuntu desktop and remove all Mate packages but I cant resolve it.

I have been having this problem recently: Ubuntu keeps loging me out randomly even when I am actively moving the mouse and pressing keys.

The screen goes blank and there is this cursor thing at the top left of the screen for a few seconds and I find my self at the login screen.

I have found other questions on this they don't seem to help.

I found out that my storage was full. So thought of restarting it. But once restarted it, And after I entered the password, it got stuck at the login screen. I can move the mouse but cannot click anything.. I used the keyboard and went to terminal and restarted it.. I have seen a lot of problem with login loop but its not my problem. I don't know what to do.. please help me. Thank you.

• Sometimes I enter the password, it loads for a long time, screen goes black, and then i'm back at the login screen

I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish) When I tried to log in via gnome, my usual username/password wasn't recognised. I then did Ctr Alt F1 (or F3? - I can't remember) and was able to access a terminal login screen.

My problem is that Teams keeps asking for the login information of my organization every time it starts.

Hello guys hope you can help me out, currently I have a fresh install of Ubuntu Desktop 21.10.

I successfully added it to my windows domain controller, users works great but the only option that I see it’s missing is the fingerprint on users section. Note: For local Ubuntu user fingerprint works, but for domain users not, did I need to add them to a group to get fingerprint working?

Thanks in adva ...
