Probably /var
does not have free space. It had happened before that I needed to empty /var
. That is why it prompts to tty when it starts. I can't log in normally.
It says after the prompt,
`/dev/nvme0n1p5: clean 203241/4063232 files 1974099/16250112 blocks`
It does not change. I restarted lots of times but always is the same numbers.
And, I cant cancel when I press Ctrl + C
on the first screen. It immediately goes to that screen.
I put my username and password in any tty tty3 for example but it does not accept. Maybe I don't know my username. How can I see my username?
I can't even go to recovery mode on my HP laptop. I tried f11
f12
shift but it always goes to Ctrl + C
and then clean the block writing :(
I used f11 to go to recovery mode but it goes that tty screen again. Please help.
FIXED
I did this and it seems to work: https://askubuntu.com/a/1279814/1566911 sudo apt install --reinstall gnome gdm3
and then rebooted. now I am on my desktop. it showed Ctrl + C
but it passed it quickly. Now I restarted 2 times and it seems no problem. Any suggestions? Why did I have this error? How can I go back to a normal desktop? I mean when I do Ctrl + tab
, I can see only one chrome tab despite there being 3.
