Sometimes I get a black screen

jp flag

On Ubuntu 20.04 sometimes when I get out of sleep I have just a black screen. I might get it also just when I get out of the lockout. The login page does not appear I just have a black screen.

I use 2 screens, the first one is a laptop screen reversed and an external monitor which is the primary one.

So I think that it's a GDM issue. Where to check what bugs? Is there any log file?

Are you able to access a TTY terminal or is that black as well? Here is a previously asked answer that explains what TTY is if you aren't sure: https://askubuntu.com/questions/66195/what-is-a-tty-and-how-do-i-access-a-tty

Not at all the time, but I did! Once on the TTY terminal I just did a reboot finally.

Do you have noveau in use? (Nvidia driver)? That only applies if you have a nvidia card in your system.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
