To explain better, I took some pictures:

It is stuck here and when I press the power button, it shows me this:

Then I press longer to shut down. I do this two or three times and finally, after that, I am able to see login screen.

I saw that it might be because of NVDIA driver. I don't know: enter image description here

I had the exact same problem today on a laptop very similar to yours (Acer Nitro 5 but on Ubuntu 20.04). Some things that helped me solve my problem:

Possible solution 1

After a few hours, I noticed that my primary monitor (the laptop screen was remaining black) but my secondary monitor worked fine when I plugged it in. I don't know if it will work, but it's a very easy check, so start here.

Possible solution 2

I suspect the problem is related to Xorg:

  1. In grub (when you choose which operating system to boot), choose Advanced options for Ubuntu
  2. From the next menu, choose the Ubuntu version that ends with (recovery mode)
  3. Instead of the login, you will get a menu with a purple background—choose root, which works like your terminal but with sudo privileges
  4. Remove the X11 configuration (it will be created on reboot): rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  5. Reboot by typing reboot

Possible solution 3

Type dkms status, to confirm that you have an Nvidia driver installed. I tried toying around with different Nvidia drivers, and ended up with 515 (520 is the latest, at least for my GPU). My output says: nvidia, 515.65.01, 5.15.0-52-generic, x86_64: installed.

Possible solution 4

This one didn't work for me, but you could try booting with a different kernel. Plenty of people had problems with a bug in kernel 5.15.0-52-generic, your kernel. 5.15.0-48-generic might work.


As a temporary fix, you could sudo prime-select intel, which let me log in, at least. However, my laptop ran very slow (because it wasn't using the Nvidia GPU). To revert, sudo prime-select nvidia.

Let me know what works and what doesn't. I'm not very good at this stuff, but I'll help in any way I can.

About Xorg, as seen from the attached image(the last one), I changed the first one. It kinda solved, no more stuck in the bootup, but it comes really late. I don't know, I think I will switch to a more stable distro. I am having problems with Ubuntu.

In the last image, you're changing the driver, not removing the Xorg file!

Ok then, let's try it. `I suspect the problem is related to Xorg. Start in recovery mode (let me know if you don't know how), go to tty2 (CTRL+ALT+F2), and log in. Then, cd /etc/X11, rm xorg.conf (or cp xorg.conf.nvidia-xconfig-original xorg.conf) and reboot. I suggest removing xorg.conf—it will be recreated on reboot and remove.` Can you explain this more please?

I've updated my answer with more detailed instructions. If that doesn't work, show me the output of `dkms status` please.
I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

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.
