This has been happening for a while now about a month. I thought it would be fix with new updates but it didn't.



The file /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old has this last few lines before the crash

I tried opening up the virtual terminal but won't let me type (It's stuck)
So how can I fix it?

  • Check to see if a file /var/log/Xorg.0.log was written at the time it failed. If so, then it may contain useful information. But be aware that the file may be from a previous boot and only indicate success, so check its timestamp. Such a file from the successful boot would not be useful.

  • @MichaelHampton I did the unsuccessful boot first and then restarted for the successful boot to check the file. But the file has the success boot time. What else can I do?

  • In that case the file might be renamed to /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old.

I also stuck at the started GNOME display manager... today.



However, I solved my own problem by removing gdm and installing lightdm, which give me a good look in the start session. I've also re-install the nvidia driver but I can not tell which part really help (Maybe both of them).



Here is the command line I used to solve it...



PS: I also add nouveau.modeset=0 in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg but it gives no luck (but better resolution)



dnf remove gdm-1:3.30.1-2.fc29.x86_64 
dnf -y install lightdm-gtk
dnf -y remove nvidia-*
sudo dnf -y install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs
sudo systemctl enable lightdm


You may check by start the lightdm immediately



systemctl stop gdm
systemctl start lightdm


Now I am totally fine without re-install the whole system as I did last time.
