Lost in logs and install/removal, can't find where to look further.since the last generic upgrade and reboot I get a 'dark' screen as a greeter.Locally I can't use the system however remote services SSH/minidlna works fine, but I use the system locally too.
I used to be able to get to the TTY with Ctrl+ALT+F2 or F3/F4..., now I touched so many things I just get a blinking cursor starting Ctrl+ALT+F2And a "no signal / power-off screen" with Ctrl+ALT+F1
