I am running Fedora KDE 40 alongside Windows 11 23H2, (the PC in question is also sometimes used by a few other family members, which is the reason I still have Windows) When I tried restarting into Fedora today, everything appeared fine, I selected the normal boot fedora option in GRUB, and the normal loading screen showed up. to be then followed by the cursor appearing for a while before it simply disappears, the screen goes black & turns back on stuck on a screen which is completely black with a terminal-like cursor in the very top left, It will then stay stuck thet way until you forcibly turn off the power. This hasn't happened before. I tried a live boot and checked the partition... It dosen't seem any different than normal. One thing I did notice is that yesterday on the login screen the sleep and restart option where bugged out, but I wouldn't think that's relevant? Can anyone help. I'm not sure what could be happening.
EDIT: here are some pics of the logs, I still dont know why this happened or really what to do, I'm still fairly new to this
UPDATE: I checked the logs & found a few relevant entries. But it basically says that for some reason it cant initialise OpenGL backend, then stops wayland followed by all Qt processes failing causing any GUI elements to completely fail after that. What should i do now? I can't use dnf since the wifi isnt connected yet in the tty3 so should I try a repair from the live boot?
Are you using the rpm-fusion mesa drivers or Fedora's (assuming you use Intel / AMD card)?
You can connect to wifi via tty using nmcli command:
nmcli --ask dev wifi connect CoolNetwork123Or you can use nmtui if you prefer a graphical frontend
