Boot with no GUI issue
by palacca from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5PF4X)
Hi to everyone,
I'm using antiX19.4 (Debian 10 based) with 4.9.0-264-antix.1-amd64-smp kernel.
My mobo is Biostar P4M800-M7A rev7.0, with:
Intel Pentium 4 521
Integrated GPU S3 UniChrome Pro
In recent days, when booting the machine it alternates between GUI and not GUI boot. So sometimes I boot the computer and as it ends boot log I get the login page but without GUI, only text based.
If I run runlevel I get "N 5". Here is the boot log when this happened:
Quote:
The runlevel seems fine, so does the "Starting slim ... [ok]" log. compared to when computer boots with GUI the boot log seems the same.
What I noticed is that it generally does the "no GUI boot" after I left my pc powered off for a longer time (a few hours).
As a new user I have no more ideas about how to solve, or understand, this issue. Thanks for your time.
