If you cannot login to your account but the GUI is back, you have to fix your drivers from the command line (Ofcourse you have to! you broke them in step 1!!!) Run this and you should be fine: sudo dpkg -configure -a The login loop and the way out Note: If your dpkg reconfigure fails in this line, dpkg-reconfigure lightdm While I typed my credentials with joy in my heart and spring in my step, my computer decided to just keep asking me for my credentials again and again. Screenshot by author: lightdm reconfigureĪt this point, I was overjoyed because on rebooting, everything seemed to work and I came to my sign-in screen.

You can see that in your Software updates application under “Additional Drivers”. This is probably because Ubuntu defaults to the XOrg drivers with a new Installation. I decided to document it once and for all, for everybody suffering from new installations of Ubuntu like me. In the process of fixing these errors, I went through the all-too-familiar NVIDIA, light-dm issues that I had to go through a couple of times as a Ubuntu newbie. The trouble came afterward when the installation was slower than the economy during the pandemic. Having had enough of Kubuntu, I switched to Ubuntu 20.04, which wasn’t all so much a pain to install, you know… the GUI support, and all. I recently noticed that I haven’t used my Kubuntu PC in a while during which it gathered dust. I switch between Windows and Flavors of Ubuntu a lot.
